She leaves behind her children Jeannie Black (Jim), Sandra Mannelli, Vincent Mannelli, grandson Aaron (Tia) and great grandchildren Andrey, Ava and Lyla.
She was preceded in death by her daughter Karen Mannelli, her husband Rico Mannelli and her second husband George Fredriksen.
Lillian worked as a secretary at American National and later at William Temple Daycare. She loved working with children, taught Sunday School at First Presbyterian Church in Galveston, was an impeccable seamstress, enjoyed going on trips with the Gloria Dei Lutheran Travel Club, visited elderly in nursing homes, walked every morning before work and enjoyed dancing for many years. Lillian also found joy in the details—and that joy often showed in her style, as she loved clothes with a little bling and spark in them, a fitting reflection of the light she brought to those around her.
