Lillian, since 1979, was one of the proverbial mothers of Charlotte County. Her culinary skills were renowned far and wide. She prepared meals for nearly every trucker that traveled the Number 1 Highway at one time or another and she never had trouble speaking her mind. She will be sadly missed by her family.
