Lillian Latanville, of Midland Ontario, passed away on July 8th of heart complications after months of declining health, at the age of 65.
Lillian was born on February 4th 1959 to Czech immigrants Antonin and Ludmila Borysek in Midland, Ontario. In 1986, Lillian met Bruce Latanville at a local singles dance in September of 1986. Lillian and Bruce went on to be married July 4th 1987. Proud Mother of son Micheal and his wife Nicole, Christopher and fiancé Deanna, and daughter Anne-Marie and husband Alec. Grandmother to Leo, Logan, Lukas and Penelope. Lillian is survived by her brother Anthony Borysek and husband Bruce Latanville.
Lillian lived her life the best way she knew and was very proud of her three children. She enjoyed travelling and visited most of the world with her Mother Ludmila, and took great pride in her Czech heritage. You could always count on her to add levity to the room with her unique sense of humour. She enjoyed animals and nature, especially birds. She loved upbeat music, holidays with family, and was possibly the world’s biggest fan of the original Star Trek featuring Captain Kirk. Above all else, Lillian’s life was defined by sharing joy in Christ and spending time with her Husband. While our hearts mourn the loss, we take comfort in knowing that she is no longer suffering.
