I am so grateful to have known Lil and what a special lady. She was so special to me during the short few years I knew her and I will miss her enormously. Will also miss going to Michaels dairy for frozen pudding ice cream cones. Love you Lil and rest in piece. So glad I got to know you.

My sincere condolences to Lil's family. I will always be grateful for her and Kathy Gabco's help selling raffle tickets at St. Paul's Corned beef and cabbage dinners. Kathy must be welcoming her sidekick in Heaven. I will continue to pray for all of you that God will grant you peace.
