Linda Leola Lilley Linda L. Lilley, 69, passed away at UPMC-Hamot on Sunday, November 7, 2021. She had been struggling with being a quadriplegic for 40 years, but heart disease took over and spirited her away. She was born in Erie in 1952, the daughter of Louise Odessa Hilgandorff and Wallace Windsor Rasey. In the 70’s she was a bartender and went to school to become a hair stylist. She belonged to many churches and was in AA during the 80’s. She enjoyed drawing and listening to music; her favorite band was the Moody Blues. She also loved playing card games; especially Spades and Canasta. She is survived by her daughter Heather Lee Rainey and grandchildren; Brandi Nikole Rainey and Logan Tyler Rainey-Lamb. She was a free spirit and spoke her mind often. We love her and she will always be in our hearts; to the moon and back. Private services were conducted by the Dusckas-Martin Funeral Home and Crematory, Inc., 4216 Sterrettania Rd.
