Lillian Mitchell
May 7, 1916 - March 3, 2019
Lillian Mitchell passed peacefully at the Elderwood Nursing Home in Liverpool, NY on March 3, 2019. She would have been 103 years old on May 7th. She lived on the family egg farm and chicken ranch on Rolling Hills Road in Camillus with her beloved cat Tee Te. She was predeceased by her parents Samuel and Annie (Adams) Sachs; her brother Raymond Sachs in 1997; and her husband Edward. Her parents were immigrants from Russia and England who ran the farm and ranch with Ray in Camillus and worked closely with Cornell and Syracuse Universities on agricultural research. Ed and Lillian lived in the Los Angeles, CA area where she was a professional secretary at Hollywood Studios. She met many stars in her work and, in particular was close to Ernest Borgnine. After Edward passed and there was a big earthquake in the 1970’s, she decided to move from California. She was then employed by the Legal Aid Service of the United States in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. When she retired, she moved back to the family farm to be with her brother. Neither Lillian nor Ray had any children. She is the last member of her family. At Lillian’s request, she will be cremated and there will be no calling hours or service. Arrangements by the B.L. Bush & Sons Funeral Home, Camillus. Please sign her guestbook at www.BLBUSH.com
