    I am so very sorry for your loss. Each time I was fortunate to connect with “mom”,Lillian was always warm, compassionate. Lillian participated in many of our Scouting events to show her support to Rob. I know you will be missed, but definitely left a mark on our lives.

    Every time I met Lillian I liked her more. A forthright yet shy smile, she always made me smile and her graciousness was enormous. And may I say she raised an awesome daughter. Ruth Ann and Perry take care of yourselves during this difficult time. Rob and Darlene, I am so sorry for your loss. Lillian will be deeply missed.

    Words of comfort are hard to find at this sad time. Your dear mother Lillian was a friend through our Monday afternoon coffee group at Tim’s. Although my husband John and I moved to Belleville 4 years ago, I kept in touch with her through our beloved St. Michaels parish. She was a woman of faith through very serious health issues. She loved her family and adored Corrine and Connor. Her absence will be felt by many. I pray our friend Sheila has met her at heavens gates. Take care of each other…….in God’s love and ours…..Donna and John Bruce

    Lillian and I met while volunteering with the Parkinsons Foundation. She was always so warm and friendly. I recall how proud she was to introduce me to Rob and his family, especially the twins!
    My deepest sympathies.

  31. Linda Roozen February 5, 2017 at 12:19 pm

    I met Lillian through my volunteer work at Parkinson’s and we became instant friends. I will miss her sense of humour and our lengthy conversations during our regular luncheon get togethers. My heartfelt condolences to her family. She loved her family very much and was especially proud of Corrine and Connor. I still cannot believe she is no longer with us.

  32. Cathy (Smith) Williams February 6, 2017 at 7:58 am

    My heart was full of sadness when I heard of Mrs. Companion’s death. I will always and forever associate her with my Mom (Connie Smith), their other ally Carol McGleish, and the church bazaar. Now the three are together…. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Hugs to the family. I will miss Lillian very very much…
