Our deepest sympathy to the Schock family. She was always a happy, cheerful lady and she made the best icebox ice cream w/oreo coating in the whole wide world!
So many wonderful and fun memories of visits to the farm when Verlin and I would go back to SD. The world has lost one of the greatest cooks in the world!! And I remember how kind Lillian always was, and she was always smiling. God Bless Her Forever.
Lost a good friend. Enjoyed playing cards with her. She always smiled and made me feel so welcomed. Sending all our sympathy and prayers.
You only stop touching her in life, but she has touched your heart forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Goodbye to a beautiful lady. I got to spend an hour with Lillian last Thursday afternoon. She was so very special. My sincere sympathy for the loss of a lovely person.
So sorry to hear about Lillian.
Thinking of you during this sad time . I didn’t know your Mom but when ever someone mentioned her it was always good things said. May she rest in peace. Jenise
Some of you may not know me but I am the grandaughter of Lillian Schock. My mother, daughter and I spent a few hours with Grandma that morning before she passed away and I was so grateful for those few hours. We visited, laughed, teased each other and just enjoyed being together. She talked about how much she loved all her children and how special they all where to her. She looked glowing that day for some reason and now, I understand why. I really believe god was with her already and he had answered all our prayers. He did not make her suffer and he knew she was not happy in the home. So may all angels in heaven enjoy her as much as we all did and a message for her Until we meet again!
