Lillie Ross Obituary

Ross, Lillie

Our beloved Lillie Marie Ross has gone to be with God's angels early. This is a tragic and heartbreaking loss, but we know that Lillie is at peace in heaven with her great grandmother.

Lillie was born in Gary, Indiana. She grew up listening to Michael Jackson and enjoyed a christian lifestyle filled will love. Her kind heart and sweet nature was always immediately felt by friends and family. She would do whatever she could to help someone be happy, leading with care and empathy.

Lillie loved animals and had two cats, Gizmo and Lola, whom she adored and cared for in such a precious way. She had recently graduated 7th grade at NFC academy and was enjoying her summer break.

Rest in peace, Lillie. We love you and will carry your love forever.

My daughter and I were deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Lillie. We have known her since she was a baby. Her great grandmother Ms. Yvonne was a close family friend of my mother. She always enjoyed attending my daughters birthday parties, even though she was older. She´d ask to have her hair styled like my daughters and I´d accommodate her. Lillie was a beautiful girl and had a wonderful spirit. We will cherish our memories of her . May God bless you and comfort you during this difficult time of bereavement.
