My brother and I will greatly miss our Dear Aunt Lillian. There was such warmth and love ... she sent her smiles right through the phone line! When we were lucky enough to be in her presence, we had fun, everyone did - she lit up the room. When at Family gatherings with her sisters and my cousins, oh my gosh, the stories ... the laughter. When I think of my Aunt Lillian, I will remember laughter, love and joy and a life well lived. I will miss her for the rest of my days. Much Love to my Dear cousins, Robin Rymer and my brother, Michael Rymer

Sorry to hear about your mom. She was always such a "classy lady." We are serving a mission in Tokyo so won't be able to see you at the funeral, but wanted you to know that we'll be thinking of you as you say goodbye to your mom.
