Lillie Krussell Lillie Krussell
(July 14, 1922 - February 15, 2011)
 Lillie "Honey" Essie Krussell of 1500 Click Road, Petoskey, passed away Tuesday, February 15, 2011 at the University of Michigan Hospital, in Ann Arbor, from complications after a short battle with cancer. Lillie had her family by her side. Lillie was met by her one true love Robert "Bob" Leroy Krussell Sr., her son Jerry Krussell, and her grandson Michael Slocum. Lillie is survived by her son Robert Krussell Jr of Texas, and her three daughters Rhea McNaughton, Beverly Evans, and Kimberly Gray (Bud Jr.), and her beloved pug Bandit, all of Petoskey. Also surviving are Lillie's 20 grandchildren, 26 great-grandchildren, and many great-great grandchildren.
 Lillie was born July 14, 1922, the daughter of William Guy Albro and Winifred May Haskins of New York. Lillie married Bob in 1939 and they spent their lives in the home they built together on Click Road. Lillie was well known around Petoskey having worked for 11 years as a bus driver for the Petoskey Schools and enjoyed transporting various teams to events around the state. Lillie also drove a bus for the Petoskey Friendship Center for 10 years. In her retirement with Bob, Lillie loved to travel the country, enjoying most their visits to the desert southwest and spending time with her dear friend Nellie Nelson in Stephenville, Texas. Lillie enjoyed softball games at Petoskey's waterfront, planting flowers around her home, cooking, and reading every word of the Petoskey News Review daily. Lillie also found a way to contribute to many charities, oftentimes building care packages for the troops overseas. In recent years, Lillie enjoyed most the time with her pug, Bandit. The pride of Lillie's life was her grandchildren.
 Even in the moments prior to her surgery she stated, "I need this, because I have many grandchildren to live for." She instilled in her grandchildren many things, including her love of travel, inspiring many of them to travel the country, a deep sense of personal strength, to appreciate birds and flowers, and try new recipes both in life and in the kitchen. She then loved hearing those experiences through the stories they shared with her. During her stay at U of M, her constant request was, "I want to go home." Although her condition prevented her from traveling, her family brought Petoskey to her.
 Lillie's friend, Pastor Daniel Pomerlee of Love Abiding Christian Church, Mountain Home, Idaho, will lead services to celebrate her life at Stone Funeral Home, Petoskey, on Monday February 21st at 2:00 p.m.; the date is Bob and Honey's 72nd wedding anniversary.
