I met Elder Lillian in 2014 when she was lovingly assisting Vanessa Bishop with a Ministry called "Our Daily Bread" at Church on The North Coast. I was shut in my home very ill at the time; God used Lillian to play a pivotal role in my complete healing mind, body, and Spirit. We formed a lastly friendship and I was honored to attend NCSSM with her, and serve on many church ministries. She always prayed for me, and pushed me to walk in my purpose. She loved it when I made her my homemade Ginger Ale, she loved my family's homemade Vanilla, and I loved serving her. I will miss her deeply, and yet so grateful for all the lessons I have learned from her. I look forward to seeing her once again.
To the family, friends, and church family my deepest condolences. Rest well sweet Lilian.
