December 24, 1950 — September 7, 2026

In celebration of a life marked by compassion, dedication, and love, we honor Lillian Barrienger, a cherished wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. Born on December 24, 1950, in Toledo, Ohio, Lillian's journey has been one of unwavering commitment to her family and community. Lillian was the beloved daughter of John Adams Sr. and Margret Adams, both of whom she joins in eternal peace. Her nurturing spirit was evident from a young age, and she carried this quality throughout her life. A proud graduate of Libby High School, Lillian went on to dedicate two decades of her life to nursing, a profession through which she touched countless lives with her gentle care and kindness. Lillian shared 35 beautiful years of marriage with her devoted husband, Ronald Barrienger. Together, they built a loving family, guided by mutual respect and unwavering support. Her children, Angela Adams and John Adams, were the center of her world, and she delighted in every moment spent with her grandchildren, Kimberly Morgan and Lillian Thanasiu, and her great-grandchildren, Jecaro Vaughn, Leilani Vaughn, and Meadow Smith. A devoted member of Calvary Church in Toledo, Lillian's faith was a cornerstone of her life. Her church community was a source of strength and joy, and she cherished the friendships formed there. Her love for travel and quality family time brought color and joy to her life, as she delighted in new experiences and cherished traditions alike. Lillian will be remembered for her caring heart and her selfless nature, always eager to help others regardless of the circumstances. Her legacy is one of love and generosity, traits she instilled in her family and all who knew her. A private funeral service will be held to honor her life. Family and friends wishing to pay tribute to Lillian may do so by making a donation to a charity of their choice, reflecting her enduring spirit of giving. Lillian Barrienger's memory will forever remain in the hearts of those she loved and those who loved her. Her life was a testament to the power of kindness, leaving an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing her.
