Williamson and Katie Rexer Moyers. Lillian was married on June 9, 1918 to Earl J. Sistler in Pope County, IL where they raised 5 children. Moving to Geneva in 1945, she returned to Pope County for a few years and they returned to Geneva where she lived with her daughter, Naomi. in 1998, she moved to Broken Arrow, OK to live with her daughter, Katherine.
Lillian is survived by her five children, Katherine Metcalf of Broken Arrow, OK, Naomi Bronson of Geneva, Il, David E. (Lola) Sistler of Franklinton, LA, Beulah (Arthur) McConnaughay of Payson, AZ and Elaine Wolf of Geneva, IL. She is also survived by eight grandchildren, Richard (Georgia) Metcalf of Sycamore, IL, Robert (Rebecca) and John (Cindy) Metcalf of Broken Arrow, OK, Frederick (Audrey) Sistler of Adana, Turkey and Nancy Loomis of Safford, AZ, Beth (Richard) Miller of Spokane, WA, Amy (Tom) Head of Brookfield, WI and Alan Wolf of Geneva, IL.

Lillian was a quiet woman who loved to read, sew, quilt, weave, garden, work crossword puzzles, and especially beat her children at Scrabble. In a lifetime that spanned 3 centuries, she was a first- hand witness to history. Yet her biggest contributions were in the lessons she taught her children and those around her... work hard, always study and learn, trust in God and always share the gifts God has given you. There is always someone who needs a helping hand. Her children are proud of this heritage she gave them.
Services and interment will be private.
