With very little encouragement, she would approach her Steinway and belt out any one of many Broadway show tunes. Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Rodgers and Hammerstein and Cole Porter were just some of her favorites and she knew most of their work by heart!

Lil was so proud that her great-grandchildren have embraced music as she had and loved hearing them perform.

Sax, MD and his wife Janed of Huntington Beach, CA; 3 grandsons: Eric and his wife Joanne, Douglas, Steven and his wife Judy; and 5 great-grandchildren: Michael, Andrew, Zachary, Nathan and Molly whom she hopes will never forget the love she felt for them all.
