Lil was a supervisor at Camp Cole, an additional property of Fort Monmouth, in the U.S. Army Electronics Command’s Procurement Directorate and retired from her position in 1995 to lovingly take on the responsibility of caring for her great nieces and nephews. Lil never missed an opportunity to spend time with her family and the people she loved most. She greeted everyone with her friendly smile and heart of gold. Lil loved summer days by the pool, winter weekends at the Poconos, and Sunday family dinners. She particularly enjoyed the holidays because it was a chance for the entire family to get together, even the west coast family came home. She and her sister Rose loved to walk the boardwalk, attend the U.S.Tennis Open and were season ticket holders for the Garden States Art Center. The two sisters traveled throughout Europe, and adored Broadway shows, especially Radio City Music Hall at Christmas time. Lil’s hobbies included knitting, baking, playing her organ and bingo. Lil was a graduate of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Grammar School, Asbury Park, Saint Rose High School, Belmar, and attended Monmouth Jr. College in Long Branch. She was a communicant of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Asbury Park. The family would like to thank Dr. Angelo Chinnici, his entire staff, and her caretaker of 5 years, Kate Khosruashvili.
