Lillian Blanche Gilles Obituary

With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Lillian Blanche Gilles (Madison Heights, Michigan), who passed away on March 19, 2026. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Lillian Blanche Gilles to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid Lillian farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Lillian is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Frances Lane and Robert Lane; her husband William Gilles; her children, Sue Kantor (Seth), Herb Gilles (Annie) and Andrea Briggs (Walter); her grandchildren, Jacqueline Gilles (Fermin), Walter Briggs V (Chloe), Aaron Briggs (Sonia) and Willy Briggs (Bri); and her great grandchild Amaury.

In lieu of flowers, those who wish may make a memorial donation to Michigan Humane in honor of Lillian Gilles.
