She was then transferred to Rhein Main Air Base in Germany from 1955 to 1957, and was selected to be the first Aero Med Evac Flight Nurse. Lillian then returned to the states, serving in the reserves at VA Hospitals in New York and Denver, retiring in 1976 as a major.
On May 27, 1973, Lillian was united in marriage to Lester Sullivan. They lived in Central City, Colo., for several years before retiring and returning to the Lodgepole area. Lillian and Lester were instrumental in the development of Sullivan Hills, a camp of the ELCA Nebraska Lutheran Outdoor Ministries on the family homestead 10 miles north of Lodgepole, where she was born. Lillian spent her last months at Miller Memorial Care Center in Chappell. Her family and friends are grateful for the devoted care she received from her nurses and aides.
Survivors include one sister, Evelyn Flessner of Lodgepole; one sister-in-law, Ida Schwartz of Oshkosh; one step-son, Jim Sullivan and wife Lou and one step-daughter, Sue Kost and husband Leo, all of the Denver area; and numerous extended family members and friends.
