Laconia----Lillian Evelyn Twombly, 71, formerly of 251 Gordon Hill Rd, Alexandria, died at the Belknap County Nursing Home, Laconia, on Friday, April 4, 2014.
Lillian was born September 21, 1942 in Laconia, the daughter of Clarence and Dorothy (Henry) Twombly.
Lillian was a very loved person. She was kind, caring of others and respectful. Once people met her, they immediately loved her and recognized her inner and outer beauty.
Lillian, like her mother was artistic, she especially liked to draw landscapes (houses and flowers) and cats and at one time she made beautiful note cards that she gave to family and friends. She loved music and had a beautiful voice and a good memory for many songs, especially the “oldies” which she would sing with her friend, Richard H. Though she was a homebody at heart, when offered the chance she loved to travel. She went to Graceland and to Florida on several occasions.
Lillian had a loving and caring family and many friends; she will be missed by all who knew her.
Lillian’s family, Jeanette and Larry Stinson and their granddaughter, Jessica Duran and other family members and her friends, Phyllis Tower, (since they were little girls), Penni and Larry Matthews, Richard Harris, Melanie Mardin and others were very important to her. She always looked forward to the time she would spend with Jeanette and opportunities to visit with friends. Upon moving to the Belknap Nursing Home, she became reconnected with family as a cousin, Denise Boudreau, worked there and so was able to reunite with family in Ohio, Miss Jean Henry and family, and in Kentucky.
Survivors include her nephew, James Stinson, of VT. Lillian was predeceased by her sister, Jeanette Stinson and their parents.
There will be no calling hours.
