Tilly Lisenby Obituary

In Loving Memory of Tilly Andrea Lisenby of Summerville SC who passed away at home on January 10th, 2026 at the tender age of 4. She will be deeply missed by her family and all that knew her. A celebration of her life will be held on January 31st at Summerville Baptist Church at 417 Central Avenue, Summerville SC 29483. Doors will be open to receive family and friends at 1pm, and the Service will begin at 2pm.

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved daughter, Tilly. She had the most infectious laugh and playful attitude. Though our time with her was painfully short, we are grateful to God for the gift of her. She was mostly nonverbal, but she will be remembered for her unique and clever means of communicating her affection and content. Her sense of adventure was truly remarkable. In time, the agony of grief will gently fade into the comfort of knowing she's in Paradise, with no happier or safer place to be, than the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Tilly is survived by her parents, David and Lenora Lisenby, her two older sisters, Rosalie Lisenby, 15, Dacey Lisenby, 14, as well as her younger brother, Elijah Lisenby, 2.

Tilly's Paternal Grandmother, Vickie Lisenby, preceded her in death, just two months prior.

The Lisenby Family mourns this terrible loss, but takes great solace in knowing Tilly is with her Grammy, her Cousins, her Great Grandmothers, and all the loved ones that went before her.

"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

Psalm 34:18
