Many years were spent volunteering with husband George at the North London Optimist Center on Cheapside Street, manning the roller skating for the Huff & Puff organization. Both she and George were honored by the City of London for their volunteerism. She was an avid golfer and belonged to Ingersoll Golf and Country Club for many years. Her latest pleasure had been ball room dancing. She has been a member of the Barbie Doll Club of London for many years. It was Tilly's wish that there be no visitation or service.
