I had the honor and Blessing to have spent time with Lila while rehabilitating at The Warren Center. We talked about about many subjects and I learned so much from her. I enjoyed her "Teaching Tales;" she was a brilliant teacher. Her daughters were her joy and I witnessed how much she enjoyed her nightly board games. I look forward to meeting her in Heaven God willing.
