'Grannies for Peace' Member Lillian Willoughby, 93, Remembered | Crooks and Liars

'Grannies for Peace' Member Lillian Willoughby, 93, Remembered | Crooks and Liars: "I still remember the day the Grannies for Peace were arrested, and thought it was important to note this member's passing. Lillian Willoughby's commitment to peace is a real inspiration - I can't imagine going to jail at any age, let alone at 89:

Lillian Pemberton Willoughby, 93, of Deptford, a retired dietitian and Quaker activist who went to jail to protest the war in Iraq three months before her 90th birthday, died Jan. 15 at home."
