I have had the pleasure of working with this lovely and caring lady in Brewster MA. She was so kind to her elderly residents. Lillian had a wonderful sense of humor that always got the team through even the most challenging of nights. She looked Fabulous in Faux Fur Coats! A special friend to all and was a fantastic cook. She was endlessly helpful at work each and every night. I was often requesting her fabulous recipes and we loved her additions to the Pot-Luck dinners. Hers was always gone before mine! May we raise our Night-shift cup of coffee to Lillian..She was a lover of our coffee. Her answer after a first sip..." That is a delicious cup of coffee." You will never be forgotten in our thoughts and conversations.

We are so sorry to hear of Lil's passing. Lil was a kind neighbor who always waved and said hello from her porch chair when we were out walking the dogs. She always said "how are my babies?" about the dogs and they loved visiting her when she came down the driveway. She made me laugh and always talked about cooking for Anthony with me. We'll miss her warm greeting and kind heart. Sending prayers and condolences to Anthony and Lil's family.

I'm so sorry for your loss Anthony, Mike, and the rest of the family. I have fond memories of Lil. One that comes to mind was when I was a teenaged waitress working at an Italian restaurant and she hung out at a table in my section with my mom (Amy) for almost my whole shift. Whenever I had a free moment or needed some refreshment, I went over to hang out at their table with them, and when I was on my feet running around I could hear Lil and my mom laughing and having a ball from all the way across the restaurant. Sending you all love, hugs, and warm wishes from far away.
