So very sorry to hear about your loss. May her neshama have an aliya and may you be comforted amongst the mourners of zion and jerusalem

I met Lilie only once, at a family dinner many years ago. I loved her. We engaged in a brilliant conversation about life, love, creativity, and her fascinating history. She was a force of nature. Very sharp and heartfelt. It was evident that she lived a very fruitful and contributory life. She inspired me (and very few people do). May she rest in love.

To your entire family my heartfelt condolences on your loss. The amazing lady was blessed with years where she had respect love and from what i understand is who you Ros are so much like. May all the wonderful memories that you have been a source of strength and comfort to you all through this difficult time and may you know of no more pain . May you be comforted as the other mourners of Zion and Jerusalem .

So saddened at the passing of darling Aunty Lilie. To my late parents she was a dear friend and to me she always showed her love and warmth. She had an open ear, never judged, always gave love and amazing advice , was always interested in how we were doing. It was special to see her when she was in Israel, and she always had an open home and a supply of her homemade goodies. May all the beautiful memories of a remarkable lady help you all through this difficult time. May her dear soul rest in peace. She will always have a special place in my heart. SHARON HATCHUEL and family.

Dear Ros, May you be blessed to live a long life like your mother. Lilie was a very special person with a wonderful warm heart we always enjoyed her company. We will miss her she always had a compliment to add to a conversation. To you, Sol and all the family may you enjoy the memories of the many years she was able to spend time with you.Our condolences at this sad time Love Paul and Miriam

A Beautiful Life When I think about your life, I cannot help but smile. You lived a long and healthy life, bringing goodness to those around you at every mile. You raised three intelligent daughters, who had 10 kids of their own. At last count, you had 17 great grandchildren – your family has grown. You were a strong and capable woman, an example to us all. Always in charge, the driving force, stable, reliable and on the ball. You were ethical and honest and charitable. These were some of your qualities that I found most admirable. You were an amazing wife to the kindest man, Lou. You kept him happy and organized, without you, what would he do. Watching you care for him all of the years and particularly near the end of his days, was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen and worthy of praise. I remember all of your visits and the special food that you made. I remember all of the simchas and the love you displayed. You had so many wonderful friends along the way. Always having visitors to pass the day. My mom and dad have been so dedicated and concerned, but that kind of care was what you deserved. You were very careful to always save and live a life of modesty. You made sure you didn’t need help from anyone and you achieved that honestly. You shared the last chapter of life with the wonderful Myrna, who ensured you grew very old. Watching you both love and care for each other, was a blessing to behold. We are all so fortunate to have had you in our lives. You bestowed so much wisdom, so much joy and beautiful memories for those that survive. We will never forget you and will love you forever. Now you have peace and you’ve left a legacy for us all to endeavour. You truly leave this world a better place than without you. At the end of our days, isn’t that all any of us can aspire to.
