Born in Sydney, she was the daughter of the late Baxter and Leah (Russell) Quinton.
Lillian was a member of Christ Church, Sydney and formerly employed in the front office at Sydney Steel. Lil was a feisty lady with a great sense of humour and a very keen fashion sense. In her younger years, she was well-known for her red hair and also, her love of animals, especially her dog Nikki. Lillian enjoyed crocheting and was brilliant at making her own unique designs of sweaters and lace table cloths. She loved a good tarabish game and a good drink. Lillian was a very special lady with a personality all her own and will be missed very much by those close to her.

Lillian was predeceased by her loving husband, Walter; sister, Marguerite ‘Snooks’ Gillis; brother, Max. Lillian was also predeceased by her lifelong friend and neighbour, Marion MacPhee.
There will be no visitation. A graveside service will be held in Forest Haven Memorial Gardens at a later date.
