NEW MILFORD, CONNECTICUT – I decided to drive back to New York early. The light in New Milford was interesting so I stopped to photograph. One of the grandest buildings on the green of this slightly troubled town is the Lillis Funeral Home. Here’s a link to the iMortuary entry for Lillis: Lillis Funeral Home.

The Lillis’s are evidently a prominent New Milford family.  A Google search identifies a Deputy Chief of Police named Lillis; the town has a Lillis Road; the school board was housed in the Lillis Building which is now apparently abandoned.

I’m going to go out of my way to collect mortuaries over the next few months.
