Lillian Louise Rood

Went home to be with the Lord on September 20, 2019. She was 93 years old. Lillian Louise Brewer was born in Saginaw on August 21, 1926 to the late Walter and Ivy (Egbert) Brewer. She was married to George Thomas Rood Sr. for 59 years until he predeceased her in 2003. Lillian loved working. She retired from Rays Food Fair after 25 years as a meat wrapper. She then moved up north with her husband to Higgins/Houghton Lake where she continued to work various jobs. She enjoyed being out of the house, meeting new people and shopping. Most of all, Lillian enjoyed spending time with her family; going on road trips, swimming at the lake, and barbecuing. She was a great cook and loved cooking for friends and family. Lillian resided at Hoyt Nursing Home for several years where she had many friends and her family would like to thank the loving and caring staff. She is survived by three children, Gloria Trepkowski, George Rood, and Colette Budd; eight grandchildren, Cindy, Gary, Brian, Christina, Shawn, Chad, Nicholas, and Renee; several great-grandchildren; many special nieces and nephews; and a lifelong friend, Donna Rogers. She is predeceased by a son, Vernon Rood; three brothers, Bert, Billy, and Bob Brewer; and a sister, Virginia Sheufelt. Funeral service will be held at 2:00 PM on Monday, September 23, 2019 at W. L.
