Lillie Mae O’Bryant, 75, was born on February 26, 1947 and passed away peacefully at her home in the early morning of Tuesday October 4, 2022. She was a lifelong resident of the Thomas Community that enjoyed crocheting and completing word puzzles. Lillie loved to read her Bible and recipe books to cook different meals for her family. She faithfully cared for her father and her beloved nieces and nephews through the years. If anyone was sick, in-need or if there were any “juicy happenings” she was the one to call. You were sure to go away with a smile on your face and laughter in your heart if you had the time to “sit a spell” with her. Lillie will be forever missed by those close to her.
