She always told me funny stories. 1 for example was when she was a little girl her dad told her to stand in front of the gate and not let the cow out, well she let the cow out anyways, and her dad asked her why she let the cow out she said be cause she told me to movvvvveeeee. Lol I can’t tell it like she did but I tell people that joke all the time but that was real life for her. Lillian you are loved and will be missed. And I hate that I had to grow up and could not stay every weekend with you although you would have welcomed me with open arms. Truly one of a kind hard working don’t take no for an anwser kinda Gal. RIP. Love you!!!!
