DR. WECKEA DEJURA LILLY

Weckea, you were such a great colleague -- always quietly brilliant and reassuringly kind. We were so lucky to work with you at the University of Chicago Library and we miss you more than words can say. Rest peacefully, friend.

I am going to miss you my dear friend and brother. Thank you for your friendship, counseling, laughs, debates, invitations to do research together, agreeing to be my study partner in psych class (FSU) and so much more. I will always cherish the good times and awesome convos! Can't believe I'm writing this...Rest well fellow Bronco & frat (#phirstpham). "The librarian is still in the building and I'll hold it down for the archivist :)" I'm praying for your family, loved ones and our FSU alumni.

Sending my deepest condolences to the family. Rest well Weckea.

Rest well Weckea. Grateful to have known you and trusting that you are in a better place.

Thank you, Lilly.... You were one of a kind!

Peace and blessings to Weckea's family during this time.

Weckea, you were truly one of a kind. Thoughtful, funny, and always ready to go deep, whether we were talking about life, love, or the words of Baldwin and Morrison. You had a way of making space for truth and laughter at the same time. Our conversations meant everything to me, and I'll carry them with me always. I'll miss you more than words can say. You'll always have a place in my heart.

Our condolences to the family of Dr. Lilly. I will forever remember the humorous moments we shared around campus.

My sincere condolences to the family and friends of my "Dr. Lilly." "Dr. Lilly," as I affectionately always called him when he was my work-study student at Fayetteville State University many years ago, will forever be loved and remembered in my heart. Rest in Peace my friend. Love, Ms. Taylor-Hilliard

My dear friend. You will always remain in my heart.

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
