  1. My sweet lily SIP your truly going to be missed love you until we meet again. Now your with our heavenly father

  2. I did not have the privilege of knowing Lily. All that I knew about her was what George told me during our conversations. What I did take away from our conversations that they were very much in love and that they were childhood sweethearts.
    They have a wonderful family of very respectful and God loving children.
    I wish George and the children the strength and endurance to continue their lives with God’s help, knowing that Lily is looking down on them. She will always be in their hearts.
    May her soul, and all the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen.

  3. My heart is broken for you all. I pray God gives you all peace at this difficult time. I know how much she meant to everyone. She has always been in my heart and will always be a part of my life and memories. She was a wonderful wife, mother and God mother. May God hold her tight. He knows I wish I could be there.

  4. Thank you Amarilys for your serenity and patience during your illness, I pray for you and your family during your time here, now I pray for your soul and strength of George and your kids. I remember you always with a big smile. God bless you

  5. I am really grateful to God who allowed me to meet such a wonderful, sweet and good-hearted woman called LILY . We met at the Gianna Center where she helped me a lot with her wisdom
