Lily & Sobhy Jacob

Lily was born on December 5th 1930 to Yessa and Maria Morgan in Egypt. After high school, Lily went on to be the first in her family to seek a higher degree in teaching. Throughout her teaching career, her infamous stubborn streak was an inspiration to her students, refusing to ever give up on them.

Lily was passionate about sharing the love of our Lord with others. Now that she has passed into the arms of our Lord on one of her favorite holidays, Coptic Christmas, her physical life on earth is over but it is the beginning of an eternal and beautiful journey for her in Heaven.

Lily joins her husband Sobhy, her parents, her brother Adly, and her sister Labeeka in Heaven. She is survived by her children Robert, Ralph, Teresa, her daughter-in-law Lisa and her granddaughter Angelina.

Please join us for Lily’s Forty-Day Memorial during the Divine Liturgy at 9:00 AM Saturday, February 14, 2026 at St. Shenouda the Archimandrite Coptic Orthodox Church, 1197 Highland Ave, Largo, FL 33770.
