"Mama Lili"

Nee Sali or Soli Friedberg. Born in or near Zubrzec (Ukraine, Poland or Czechoslovakia?)

Holocaust survivor.

Wife of William Robinson (nee Wilhelm Robinsohn, d.2002), mother of Dorothy Robinson Shea (deceased), Grandmother of Rachel Shea Beck, great-grandmother of Maddie and Sadie. Daughter of Norbert and Helena Frydberg (deceased), Sister of Carolla, Rosl and Francie (all deceased).

The "Queen of the Hostesses".

Loved black poodles (but never gave them that embarassing "poodle do" grooming).

Created wonderful paintings full of color, collage and texture.

Never thought twice about asking people she just met about their sex lives, or any other personal question that was bound to shock or at least throw the questioned person for a loop!

She was very vain and concerned with appearances, yet never gave a damn what people thought. One of the great free spirits and eccentrics. Also a bitch, in the best sense of the word! If she didn't like you, she let you know it!

She is missed a lot. I think she would be pleased!
