I was so saddened to hear of Lila’s passing. She was a wonderful woman and I have very fond memories of her. She will be missed but I am rejoicing in her trust in Christ Jesus.

My wife and I were George and Lila’s neighbors back in 1982-1984. We lived right behind them in the Snowy Range Trailer Court in far west Laramie. They were the kindest folks and we visited with them often. The reason this all comes to mind now is that I was looking on Google Maps for past places we had lived and I found that our trailer and George and Lila’s trailer are both still parked there! We, of course, are sad to hear of George and Lila’s passing, but we are comforted to learn they are now buried next to each other in Laramie.
