A favorite destination was Hawaii, where she and Gene spent many winters. She also loved to spend time with her only grandson, Johnathan, and visited Florida often as she watched him grow up. She also loved camping in the mountains of Idaho with her family or visiting Idaho's interesting historic sights, which she loved to share with visiting family and friends.
Lillian is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, David and Kathie Schroeder of Clearwater, Fla., grandson, Johnathan Schroeder of Tuscaloosa, Ala., and many nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband, Gene, who passed away earlier this year, her son, Jack, her parents, and her eight brothers and sisters.
