Lillian DeWert

DeWertLillian M., beloved mother and wife, passed away at her residence on Tuesday, October 27, 2009. She was 91 and had been under hospice care for over a year. She was the wife of the late Carl W. DeWert, who preceded her in death in 1993, and the mother of a deceased son, Richard, who passed in 2004. She is survived by her son, Ronald. She led a simple life as a housewife and a saleslady and retired in 1972. She was the oldest of five siblings and outlived them all by more than thirty years. She did not go Gently in the Night. She was a brassy, Irish lass who was just ornery enough to want to live forever, and now she will. So look out Lord, "Hell on Wheels" is on her way. She was my mother and I love her and will miss her forever. Friends may call Monday, November 2, 2009 at St. Gabriel Church, 48 W. Sharon from 9:00 AM until time of Mass of Eternal Rest at 10:00 AM. Burial to take place at Gate of Heaven Cemetery.
