Lillian Clair (Lilly) McCain, 18 of Centre, passed away on August 21, 2025. She was born August 22, 2006, in Rome, GA, to her loving parents, Heather and Ben.
The love between sisters is unconditional and unwavering. It’s a bond that can never be broken. On August 21, 2025, two sisters who loved each other dearly, Lilly and Libby McCain departed this world together.
Lilly was an old soul. She was creative and headstrong. A ray of sunshine; she was happy and bubbly, lighting up each room she walked into. She was the go to person for so many of her friends; their rock who was always willing to lend an ear. As a child she showed her love by picking all the flower blooms in the yard to put in vases and as she grew older, her talent in the kitchen blossomed and she loved cooking delicious meals for her friends and family.
Lilly graduated with the Spring Garden High School Class of 2025 in May. She was the pitcher for the high school softball team for much of her high school career. She credited her time on the team for shaping her into a young lady she was proud to be. Lilly had just entered Jacksonville State University as a sophomore, driven and excited for what was to come.
The family will receive friends at the church Monday, August 25, from 4:00 to 7:00PM CST.
A celebration will be had for Lilly and Libby on Tuesday, August 26, 2025 at 1:00PM CST at Pine Grove Baptist Church in Centre, AL with Rev. Rick Jennings and Rev. Ricky Pollard officiating. A eulogy will be given by Molly Roberts.
