was born on July 25, 1934 to Rudy and Dora Ambriz. She was preceded in death by
her parents and her brother Rudy Ambriz Jr.
Lillian graduated from Jeff Davis High School in Houston and was voted Most Popular
in her senior class. She attended the University of Houston where she met her husband
Hollis Glynn Price. While at UH they both participated in Frontier Fiesta. They remained
avid supporters of the UH Cougars throughout their lives and were football and
basketball season ticket holders for many years. They were involved in the UH alumni
association and The Cougar Cookers, and were happy when Frontier Fiesta was
revived at the university.
Lillian was a loving and supportive mother to her three children. She was quick to
volunteer to be a room mother, Scout Leader, carpooler, costume maker or fundraiser.
She encouraged her children in their many activities. As her children grew up, Lillian
opened her home to all of their friends and there was always a group hanging out in the
kitchen or sleeping over. In later years she was an active “Grandmom” to her 3
grandchildren and enjoyed taking them on “adventures” to museums, the zoo, the
circus, movies and parks. These adventures always ended with a special souvenir or
meal.
Lillian greatly enjoyed family trips and get togethers. She and her family have many
memories of the annual Price family Christmas parties, fishing trips to East Texas,
summer vacations at the 7A Ranch in Wimberley, sunny weeks at the beach house in
Surfside, cross country road trips and relaxing vacations in Kauai. Family birthdays
were often celebrated at one of Lillian’s favorite Mexican food restaurants with lots of
laughter and many margaritas.
Lillian never met a person she could not strike up a conversation with. She will be
remembered and missed by many.
Lillian is preceded in death by her husband Hollis. She is survived by her children Kathy
Price Westmoreland, Hollis Price Jr. and Laura Price Evans and by her grandchildren
Megan Westmoreland (fiancé Will Fifer), Shannon Westmoreland (husband Chester
Rose) and Jackson Evans. She is also survived by many special nieces and nephews
and extended family members that she was so fond of.
The family would like to thank the staff at Belmont Village at West University for their
loving care of Lillian during her last years.
Due to COVID-19 private services will be held at Forest Park Lawndale and a
celebration of Lillian’s life will be held at a later date. You may visit

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to MD Anderson Cancer Center (designate
Cancer Research) or to The University of Houston Foundation.
