We have known Lil for many years. She and Gene were our neighbors in Manchester Ct and they introduced us to Vero Beach Fl that that turned out very well for us. We enjoyed going to dinner with them because they both were very pleasant to be with. We are going to miss Lil and her pleasant smile. Our condolences to Gene and family for their loss.

Gene, I remember fondly the bridge games we all played together in Forest Park. I have found that the hurt you are feeling doesn’t go away but it does get easier. My deepest sympathy to you.
