Dear all,

It is with very deep sadness that I announce the Home-going of our beloved sister, Dr. Lillian Lim. She went Home after her blood pressure crashed and she became unconscious. Her brother, Dr. Lim Tow Poh, a Senior Consultant Urologist and her entire family was there with Lillian when she left. Before she went Home, he said there was nothing the doctors could do to save her as her heart's aorta has torn through and blood was just oozing out from within her body. She left us at 7.52 pm though it could be a few minutes earlier when we saw her stop breathing. The pastors and their wives and the Chairman of Calvary's Board of Deacons along with a number of other leaders and pastors of the Convention and the Baptist Theological Seminary were also there to pray for her before she left. The wake services will be held at the Mount Vernon Parlor 2 at 8.00 pm on June 26 (Fri) and 27 (Sat). The body will then lie in state at Calvary Baptist Church, 48 Wan Tho Avenue at 3pm on Sun, 28 June before proceeding for cremation at the Mandai Crematorium. We thank and praise God for her life and we pray that He will continue to bless and encourage members of her family. Lillian has become a very dear sister, friend, comrade and confidante to me and I am sure, you, like me will miss her badly. Thank you for standing with her and her family in prayers, love and encouragement. May God richly bless you.
