Lillian Elaine Selinsky, peacefully left this world on September 7, 2025, at the age of 80. Born in Canton, Ohio, on September 23, 1944, Lillian lived a life filled with love, laughter, and adventure. Lillian was a proud graduate of McKinley High School and devoted her life to her family.

Lillian was known for her spontaneous spirit-often taking impromptu trips, which created countless joyful memories with her loved ones. As a woman of Italian descent, Lillian had a passion for cooking that was rooted in love. Many will remember her warm kitchen filled with the delightful aromas of her favorite dishes, especially her meatballs, and her ability to bring family and friends together around the table. Whether dining out or sharing a home-cooked meal, Lillian cherished those moments spent with family, especially her dear husband Darryl, with whom she shared 40 wonderful years of marriage.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Jerome and Angeline Wright; grandson, Jeremy; and sister, Teresa.

She is survived by her beloved husband, Darryl; children, Ron Bardash, Nicholas (Jennifer) Bardash; grandchildren, Justin, Andrew, Max, Arabella; great grandchildren, Katrina, Emma, Jeremy, Grace, Kaisen; and siblings, Rosalie, Jerry, and Tom.

Lillian's spirit will be lovingly remembered, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude to the caring staff at Allay for their compassion and support during her final days.

Funeral service will be held on September 11, 2025 at 11:00 AM at Reed Funeral Home Canton Chapel. Visitation will take place one hour prior, beginning at 10:00 AM. Please visit www.reedfuneralhome.com to sign the online guestbook.
