Lillian Cline

(Jan. 5, 2013)

Lillian Cline of Madisonville, went to her heavenly home to join her beloved parents, brother and her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, on Saturday evening, Jan. 5, at Life Care Center of Athens.

She was 94.

Preceded in death by: her parents and a brother, Eugene Cline.

Lillian was born to Benjamin Harrison Cline and Carrie Bell Shultz Cline on Aug. 30, 1918.  Lillian was lovingly cared for by her father, grandparents and brother as long as they lived. After their deaths, the family of her aunt, Kada Cline Sloan, helped to provide care for Lillian.

As long as Lillian was able, she told the people around her how much her Jesus loved them and freely gave smiles and hugs.

The family would like to thank the kind, gentle staff at Life Care Center of Athens, who allowed Lillian to feel a part of their family during the past year.

Graveside service and interment will be 1 p.m. Monday, Jan. 7, in Christianburg Cemetery, with Rev. Robert D. Moore officiating. Arrangements by Biereley-Hale Funeral Home, Madisonville.
