Lillie Casselman Brown, 90, joined her husband, Walter Brown in the heavenly presence of the Lord on Thursday, January 21, 2010, with family members at her side.
Lillie was born on July 31, 1919 to Marion and Kate Casselman. She married Walter Brown on August 25, 1939. She devoted her life to her family, friends and church. All of her children and grandchildren felt like they were her favorite because her favorite was the one who needed her on that particular day. She will be remembered for her hospitality to her friends and family. Any one could call her and request a cake and she would immediately start cooking. She loved the outdoors and spent many hours tending to her flowers and the vegetables in her garden. She was a member of Piney Forest Baptist Church and she was happy when her family attended church with her. Her greatest desire was that her family members would know the Lord as she did.
