My cousin Lilli, I love you with all my heart. This doesn't even seem real. When I would visit during school breaks as a child, you always included me in everything, which I greatly appreciate. We went to the zoo, water park, and you even sent me to California to see Cousin Tyvion's new editions to the family. You were so family-oriented, funny, and could cook a mean meal! I will miss you forever. You were the most kind and wonderful cousin anyone could have, and I am grateful that I had you in my life. Your cousin, Tyanna

Funny fact: she used to hate when I called her "cousin" before her name, but it was just a manners thing that my mom instilled in me due to our age gap lol.

Lillian you are going to be missed, you love my girls dearly as a big cousin you were always involved in their lives two years ago you were here in Myrtle Beach at Tyanna graduation cheering her on and looking forward to come back next month to cheer kayanna on but your life cut short and we will always remember your beautiful smile sleep on my dear sleep and take your rest until we meet again. Love Ann .

Mike and family, Our condolences to you and we're praying for you! Sincerely, James, Valery, Ja'Va and Chris Kelley

Praying that Christ will keep you all in the palm of his hands. The Blango family

To Mike, the children, & all the family.... Our deepest sympathies, Words cannot express how much of a shock this news is, & these words may not be a comfort to you at this present moment, but we in prayer for you and the children & the entire family, for your peace, comfort, strength, and all the love that the Lord our God has to offer which is an abundance. We pray that HIS love surrounds you and showers you during this time of loss & grief. We pray that your days are bright, and the loving memories of Liddy always shine & stay in the front of your minds. When the days get hard and dark & they feel like it's too much to bear, lean on the Lord & His strength. It's with a lot of love but also with a heavy heart that we say we love you. Remember, we believe that to be absent from this physical body is to be present with the Lord Jesus Christ. Peace & Blessing, McKinley A. Miller Spirit & Truth International Worship Center Pastor

To the family. friends, co-workers I'm sorry for your loss but do know there are the prayer warriors interceding on your behalf that God will give you the strength to endure through this difficult season in your life so young but a life well lived because she touched so many. ❤️🙏🏽😢

I still can't believe it. When I found out the news I was sitting in the office and read the news out loud astonished and in disbelief. I had to read it again and realize all the memories flashing back to the last time I saw you. Life is so not fair. It's a kind reminder but not fair. I wish I could have done more for you. But I will try to do what I can now in your memory. Rest in peace gorgeous ❤️ You are such a beautiful soul! I will miss your morning messages. The Jacksonville VA will miss you and we have not stopped talking about you. -SB

A loving, kind, great person, with a loving heart, beautiful smile, hardworking, talented, was an angel on this planet. To her family, my condolences.

Lilly and I worked together at the Jacksonville CBOC. When I first started my new job she was a welcoming smile. We developed a friendship and always worked side by side. She had the most infectious laugh and I would crack jokes just the hear it. A wonderful memory was at our clinic Christmas party, we laughed while cutting a rug and she cheered people on singing karaoke no matter how bad they sounded. I will truly miss our talks and being able to confide in her. She was truly a gem and it was a privilege to be in her presence. You, your family and your loved ones will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Liddy, what can I say but gone to soon. Always had the biggest smile and a caring heart. My prayers and condolences go out to the family. May God continue to comfort you through this. Much love from Sonya and family.💜

Sending love and prayers to my second family and mother, always and forever. Adaya Godette and family

Lillian & I worked at the Jacksonville VA clinic together. She was the 1st person I met there. She ALWAYS had a smile on her face & dressed on point! She kept the best snacks in her desk drawer! Whenever she would run low, us MSA's would help to fill her back up. Lillian will be missed! She was a great person & a great coworker. Keeping the family in my prayers!

Lillian we didn't talk often, but when we did it was like we never missed a beat. You will definitely be missed, I have tons of pictures and videos from the concert I can cherish forever. I love you always girlie!! My deepest condolences to your family. - LaTasha McKay

Lilly was always smiling. In school she always made me laugh she was there for the youth at the rec center as well. She was will be missed my prayers go out to Mike and their kids. She is now an angel watching over the family.

Don't know how I missed this beautiful talented young lady seemingly I know both sides of the family. Nonetheless she carried a large baton it seems during her time here. Pick it up family and finish the race. I extend heartfelt condolences, Love ❤️, Prayers 🙏🏽and Hugs 🤗 to Mike, Terri, Dad, Mary, Siblings and children. Lillian's presence will ALWAYS be with you. You'll find yourself laughing at something she's said or done and the list goes on. Crying may endure for the night BUT Joy comes in the morning. Keep looking up. GOD'S GOT THIS 🙌🏽 Reta Frazier ♥️🌹♥️. Special message to my giraffe friend (you know who you are), I love you and pull the seat up😂😂

"I love you cousin. You made an impact on many lives, big and small. You're so special. You know the connection we had, since I was little, and although I didn't tell you verbatim, you are special to me; so special. You gave me what I needed when I didn't even know I needed it. Not only have you been in my thoughts, my mind, but always in my heart. And I know you know. It's recorded all through our DNA ;) All of our love is on the record. We will hear you, feel you, see you again on this spiritual journey. Until then... you up! Stay great! You will be missed, remembered, and loved forever. Praise to The Most High, Alpha and Omega." - Natia

Lilly B- When I started working at the Naval Clinic in 2018, you were one of the first people I met. Not to realize the more we talked, we knew each other through family and friends. You were truly a one of a kind gem. You were always smiling, laughing and willing to help anyone in anyway possible. I will forever miss you calling me to ask if Jamie can fix your car. I will never forget the time you fell asleep talking on the phone, dropped the phone and then picked it up and kept talking without missing a beat. Or, the time we rode to Walmart on lunch break and you backed into the yellow pole even with your back up camera beeping 😂 I miss all of our crazy shenanigans. Absolutely NO ONE can compare to you. If I would've known when I saw you a few months ago that it would be the last time, I would've hugged your neck a little longer. I will forever miss your beautiful smile. Prayers to your family through the difficult time. I love you Lilly B!

A beautiful person taken too soon. I'll miss you cousin Lily. Thank you for sharing your warmth and love for the time you were able. I wish you had more time to spread your light, but you will never be forgotten. -Kambria -Kambria

Rest In Peace little Cuz❤️ I still can't believe you are gone but I do know that God is still in control and he NEVER fail! Know that you are missed and loved. I can already imagine you in heaven...speaking softly and spreading your love with that contagious smile❤️🙏🏽

When I think of Lillian I think of the words: strength, courage and wisdom. I worked with Lilly at the Jacksonville VA and less than a years time she was one you could call a sister or friend. I used to call her "Jazzy Lady" because she always had "swagg" beautiful inside and out. Along with her contagious smile she was always willing to lend a hand. My prayers goes out to her family and loved ones. She will be truly missed. To Be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. In Christ, Melissa Murphy

Lillian will be deeply missed by her VA family and her team. She was one of a kind and she filled our lives with happiness and laughter. Our most heartfelt condolences go out to her entire family. We will miss our Lilly. -Crissy Cabradillia

To the family of Lillian Barrett she is already missed. Such an awesome person, wonderful friend and a hard working coworker but always with a smile. We love her but she's now resting with the Lord. Lorraine Wiggins (Aurora NC)

Lillian and I worked together at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in Jacksonville. She was a beautiful person inside and out. She was more than a friend, she was like a sister. Her infectious smile would brighten everyone's day. To Michael and the family. We are sending our deepest Condolences and Prayers for comfort and strength at this time. Love, Frances & Lamar Moore

All I can see is your smile you seemed to wear during every encounter. You were truly a light and always seemed to go the extra mile for your patients . I always commended you on how you kept yourself up . You would always say girl you got to . You were such a strong women I admired that. I have no doubt you are resting with the king himself . My condolences to your family -shi

Dear Terri and beloved family, words cannot express the sorry felt upon hearing beautiful Lilly transitioned. Her smile lit the room. She was very sweet, kind, caring, and loveable. May the peace of our Heavenly Father comfort you all.Much love, Lois Frazier Murphy.

I remember Ms. Barretts smile was so bright. She was always so positive and supportive during our time at the women's health clinic. I was her daughters Girl Scout troop leader for a couple years and her girls are adorable copies of her. She was a light and I am so blessed to have met her. My heart and Condolences go out to her family during this time. She will be missed and never forgotten. -HM3 NorrisWilson
