Lillian Kimura
April 7, 1929 - April 23, 2020

Lillian Kimura was a mentor and a long time friend of my parents. As kids she would take us downtown for lunch, Kungsholm, and Christmas shopping. She was a stern teacher as we grew up, but I will always remember those life lessons.

Lillian Kimura was a powerful leader in the YWCA movement nationally and globally. She kept our focus on the justice work to be done. Lillian would often tell me that she was the "most patient impatient" person I would ever know. She was right because she never hesitated to stand up, speak out and educate. We are eternally grateful for the life she so well lived. With deepest sympathy to her loving family.
