Rest in peace one of the best people I have ever known May the angels watch over you
Lilly I miss you terribly already. Thank you for everything; I was blessed with the gift of your friendship and I thank God for you. I’ll miss you til the day I die.
You taught me the importance of the little things. The memories we created I will forever hold onto. Ur knowledge and wisdom, ur thoughts and prayers remain present. The definition of pure beauty, acceptance and love. You made a huge impact on my life & gave me guidance in moments of uncertainty. Lily, no words can describe the pain I feel, but no words can describe how grateful I am that ur in peace. I will always be ur adopted daughter 💕. A title I have pride in holding. In the physical or spiritual, I know you are always with me. There's so much more to say, but I just cant seem to grasp the words. Until we met again Lily I love you forever.
Lilly, you were an absolute light and joy to know. Thank you for always being so excited to see us and spend time with us. You were the sweetest soul and so kind to our family. We will miss you so much. I hope you're resting now in the sweetest peace.
