My profound sympathy to Lillian's family! We were first cousins. Our mothers (Angeline and Mamie Franzone) were sisters. We grew up in Chicago. We resided within a few blocks of each other. Our Grandparents were also in our midst. Like Aunt Mamie Lillian had a sweet cordial disposition. The Patti girls frequent visits were fun! As children it spoke of family security and stability., Most important those encounters radiated love and provided a magnificent foundation for depression kids. We so enjoyed being together in a precious familial manner. We both were destined to leave the city of our birth through marriage. She retained and embellished her wonderful qualities lifelong. Our last conversation was memorable for her gratitude, laughter, and joy!
With empathy.,
