Lilly Boyd died December 26, 2011 surrounded by her family after an extended illness. She was born July 13, 1923 in San Pedro California but moved as a small child to Rhode Island and was raised on a rural farm. Story has it that she moved there with all her family driving across country in a Whippet with the family dog on the sideboard. She was married to Russell Boyd until his death in 1981. She is survived by her son, Russell Boyd of San Carlos, Ca and daughter Kathy Clarke of Redding, Ca. She also survived by her beloved grandchildren Adam Boyd and Julie Atkins and her great grandchildren Gabriel and Grace Atkins and a surviving sister, Jean Russell of Tujunga, Ca. She was well loved in the Foster City Community and attended many events at the surrounding Senior Centers. She will be laid to rest in Ontario, CA next to her husband on January 6, 2012 and will have a Memorial Service in Foster City with a date to be announced later this month.. She was a devout Catholic and a vibrant spirit to the end who was deeply cherished by both her family and friends. SNEIDER & SULLIVAN & O'CONNELL'S FUNERAL HOME (650) 343-1804

I just today 12/13/21 found this notice. I have been sending Christmas cards for years but she had not been returning them. I would with her at the Ontario Airport for Marriott. I so admired her.. She was vibrant. I am not sure how old she was then but she was riding bike with a group on the Santa Anna River trail all the way to the ocean. I remember she had a vitamin regiment and swore by them. She always was kind and a natural born teacher/leader. I am so sorry I did not get to see her before she passed. If you read this years later I would like her family to know that she was a beam of energy and happiness to me. I still own a baby blanket she gifted me.
