Lil was a devout Christian. Jesus was first in her life, then her family and friends. She went on to be with the Lord with her hands raised towards heaven.

Isaiah 40-31: They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings of eagles, they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint.
