Lillianne loved to travel to Scotland and England, but New York was her favorite place to visit. She was a Taylor Swift fan that loved music and following various local bands. Working in hotels, she enjoyed the art of hospitality and dreamed of opening her very own bed in breakfast some day. In her downtime, she loved to watch a variety of television shows, including Gilmore Girls, Law & Order SVU, Fire Country, Suits, and Hallmark Christmas movies. She was a longtime member of Job's Daughters and was an Honored Queen Bethel 7 three times.
In lieu of flowers, memorials to family are appreciated.
