To Lillian's family: I met Lillian, your precious mother, in 1967 when I was called to be the pastor of Greenawalds United Church of Christ where she and Bud were church members. She was an active and committed member, dedicated to the Lord's work and the mission of the church. Lillian will be remembered for her pleasant personality, ready smile and kind consideration for others. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her, especially you, her family. Our deepest and heartfelt sympathy is extended to each one of you.

I knew Lillian as a kind and loving soul. At my days at Greenawalds she was always a giving woman who was devoted to helping people and giving her entire heart to our Lord. Her Daughter and son-in-law were also very loving and caring people. She will be missed so much by her family, friends and especially all of her church family. My deepest sympathy goes out to the entire family of Lillian. I can already see her in Heaven with all of the beautiful angels helping people already.
