To Jonathan and the Ozaine and Sherman families:
Please accept my sincere condolences for the passing of my dear friend and colleague, “Lil” as we affectionately called her. I met Lil in 1981 when I begin my career at Exxon in New Orleans, LA. Lil was the first welcoming face to the city of New Orleans, and to my new job in which she gave me my first orientation. I did not know a soul in New Orleans..no family, no friends, but in the spirit of love and compassion, she welcomed me into her home…and made me feel like a family member. She nurtured me as a young professional, and single woman at the time. I will forever cherish her smile, genuine kindness, and love of God and family. She was truly an inspiration to the all the lives that she touched.
Jonathan and Family,
My deepest condolences to the family on the passing of your beloved Lillian Sherman. Lillian and I were sisters in Christ at Pleasant Zion M.B.C. in New Orleans. She was a dedicated servant in the church, always kind, pleasant, and full of grace. Her sweet spirit touched many, and she will forever hold a special place in my heart.
I feel compelled to share just how deeply Lillian's compassion impacted my family. After Hurricane Katrina, my family evacuated to Houston, TX. When my younger sister made the decision to remain in Houston, we were at a loss—we knew no one there, and I was concerned about leaving her without support. I reached out to Lillian, and without hesitation, she came to Houston. She reassured me that she would be there for my sister for as long as needed.
That act of love and generosity speaks volumes about who Lillian was—a true woman of faith, compassion, and commitment. Her kindness will never be forgotten, and I will always cherish her memory.
May the Lord comfort you and give you peace that surpasses all understanding.
Maxine Henry Olidge & Family”
