To the Family, Our hearts are saddened by the loss of Cousin Lillie, a resident of Leon County, a long-time member of Jackson County, and a JCTS Alumni. Words alone can not convey the sense of loss and sadness we are feeling right now. Lillie was a joy to be a rounded. She served as a member of the GA-JCTS Executive Board of Directors, 2012- 2014 reunion. She performed diligently as Party Supply Coordinator along side her sister Susie, who served on the board as Treasurer and Decoration Coordinator for the school reunion. On behalf of the White, Purdee and Spires' Family Reunion Cookbook, where Susie served as Assistant Chairperson, Lillie submitted some of her favorite dishes, Lillie's Meatloaf and Banana Pudding recipes that will forever remain a legacy of the WPS Family's cookbook. Our heartfelt sympathy, and prayers go out to the family that God will strengthen and keep you in your hours of sorrow. May your faith in God, the love of family, and caring friends comfort you during this difficult time. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and received you to myself; that where I am, there you may be also, John 24:2-3. Rest in Peace Lillie (RIP). With Deepest Sympathy, The Spires, Liggans, Potter, Herrings, and Gibson Fami

I remember when I first met Miss Lillie in 2017 when I was house hunting. Miss Lillie was taking one of her (as I later learned) three daily walks in the neighborhood, which I will always fondly remember as her performing her "security duties". After meeting her I knew we found a great place to live. She was a wonderful neighbor, a truly sweet woman, and I and my family miss her greatly. Rest in the Peace of Christ Miss Lillie. Jim, Camille, James, and Mary Elizabeth.
