"I knew Lillian Herman through her work at Woonsocket City Hall. She was a genuine public servant, treating everyone with respect and kindness. She tried to help everyone who asked her for information.Lillian was proud of her Ukrainian heritage and I would see her at events held at St. Michael's Ukrainian Orthodox and St. Michael's Ukrainian Catholic churches. She was always smiling and clearly enjoyed this.Her family's importance was unparalleled. She always reminded that her nephew Stephen had been my parents paper carrier.May her memory be eternal!Rene M. LafayetteHubbardston MA"

"My sympathy to Lillians sister Carole & the Glasscock family. I got to know Lillian well when I was a rehab patient @ Oakland Grove in Woonsocket in 2019. We had lunch & dinner @ the same table in the dining room & were both Jeopardy fans. I missed her when she moved to TN to be closer to her family whom she dearly loved. May her memory be eternal."
