Lily Hsu Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
A native of Hong Kong, Lily was the daughter of Fan Kwan Li and Siu Quan Li. At the young age of 19, she moved to the United States and, after 3 years, graduated from the University of Alabama, majoring in Biology. She met her future husband, Tah-Hsiung, in Alabama and eventually moved to Baltimore, Maryland.
In Baltimore, Lily served as a homemaker and raised her two children, Rhea and Kevin. She also worked part-time as a medical technologist. Lily and Tah-Hsiung lived in Baltimore for over 40 years and were prominent members of the Chinese-American community. Eventually, they moved to Rock Hill, South Carolina to be closer to her two children and six grandchildren.
Till her last days, Lily loved to explore and travel the world. Her journeys took her to multiple continents, countries and cruises. She always took photographs of her adventures and put the photos in countless photo albums. In her spare time, she loved going to the theater to watch movies and musicals and loved listening to her classical music. Most of all, Lily valued her family and she loved spending time with her children and grandchildren.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, September 14 2025, at 2:00 pm at Greene Funeral Home Northwest Chapel, 2133 Ebenezer Road, Rock Hill, SC 29732.

May you rest in peace, Lily. We’re very sorry to lose you as a friend and neighbor, and remember many happy days with you and TH, who we dearly miss. Our meals together, visits to each other’s homes, and our many interesting conversations. TH was the first neighbor to come by the first night we were moving in, a memory of him we will always treasure.
