Following a long career at Dressland - she and husband Grev (deceased) moved to Lotusland (as Lil called it) in l985. Every day considered to be a good day by the prairie born, they enjoyed packing picnics and exploring the breathtaking views of British Columbia. Lil is survived by her two sons, Rob (Carroll) and Jeff (Patti); her beloved grandchildren, Daniel, Kyle and Casandra, of Winnipeg; brother Alf (Stella) of Vernon; sister Laurie (Lloyd) of Abbotsford; her niece Leslie; grandniece Simone, and many other nieces, nephews, cousins and friends who will always remember her for her feisty spirit and her perfect sense of style. She could always be counted on for her hospitality and her caring interest in her many good friends and relatives back in Winnipeg and in Abbotsford. The family extends many thanks for Lil's caring friends Patty Beable and Marg Smith, and to the Hospice staff, who attended her so tenderly. There will be no service at Lilyan's request. In Lil's memory, donations can be made to the most wonderful Christine Morrison Hospice, 3rd flr. - 7324 Hurd St., Mission, BC V2V 3H5.
