Lillian was truly a very special lady I got to know her when she volunteered at OSCIL. She will be missed, my condolence to the family.
Ron & Marjorie: Lakie and I were girlfriends from our early teens (15) and until she married your Dad & moved away. And then Shirley & I became good friends and still remain so today. I have many memories of your Mom and will cherish them.
Condolences to you Marge and your family on the loss of your beloved mother . May you be comforted by your memories and faith and the prayers of friends and family.
