A private memorial service was held at 9 a.m. Thursday, May 21, for Lloyd and June Shillabeer’s daughter, Liza Shillabeer Hinton. Mrs. Hinton was 48.

The services were held at the Shillabeer home in Idyllwild with family and friends present. Pastor Tim Westcott of Idyllwild Bible Church officiated. Her ashes were buried on the Shillabeer property.
