Linda & Steve Wishing you my condolence on the loss of your mother. Lila happen to be one of my favorite cousins
Although Lila home was many miles away from our home we didn’t periodically make visits..
I remember well when she became a stewardess, but I can’t remember the name of the airlines, but it was quite an accomplishment for our families..
Another remembrance was when Lila and Bob accommodated my parents and myself and my wife for a stay. I believe they live in the Kansas City.
Yes, WE MISS Lila we know that someday we will all see her again. May the Lord bless you.

I knew Bob and Lila and enjoyed them at church events. I think of Lila often. She made liners for our mission quilts long after it was easy for her to do. She wanted so much to be of service, and she was. She would often apologize that they weren’t up to her usual standards, but we assured her that someone somewhere would be keeping warm because of her efforts. She was such a sweet and lovely lady. So glad I knew them both.
