Lillis was a special lady. God must have needed a new organizer for the upcoming St. Patrick's day celebration in heaven. She is organizing and saving seats for everyone at the festivities I am sure. May you find peace in knowing she is reunited with those she loved so much who passed on before her. May God bless you and all of your family!
