Today we remember and celebrate the life of a faithful and dearly loved member of our church family, Dorothy Lugibil. For many years, her kindness, servant heart, and steadfast faith blessed everyone who knew her.

Dorothy will certainly be missed at WUMC. Her contagious smile and the generous hugs she shared with the kids will be lasting memories for many years.

We are grateful for the legacy she leaves behind and continue to pray for comfort and peace for her family and loved ones.

Dorothy (Burton) Lugibill, age 96, of Williamsville, passed away on Wednesday, May 13, 2026 at Springfield Memorial Hospital surrounded by family.

Dorothy is survived by five children; Barb (Larry) Carter of Williamsville, Glenn Lugibill of Des Moines, WA, Linda (Ed Ward) May of Dawson, Paula Riser of Buffalo and Vince (Karen) Lugibill of Williamsville; six grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, one great-great grandson, and several nieces and nephews.

Dorothy was born on January 2, 1930, near Sherman, IL the daughter of Tobe and Ruth Frances (Fannie) Burton.

She married Paul Lugibill on June 27, 1948, in Williamsville. He preceded her in death on June 9, 2009. She is also preceded in death by twelve siblings.

Dorothy was a lifelong member of the Williamsville United Methodist Church as well as the Williamsville United Methodist Women.

She enjoyed knitting for charities, riding her scooter around town, socializing, attending horse shows, and spending time with her family. Dorothy was also an enthusiastic Williamsville Bullets fan.

Visitation for Dorothy will be held on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, from 10:00 AM until time of funeral services at 12:00 PM at the Williamsville United Methodist Church. Burial will be held immediately after the services at Walnut Hill Cemetery near Williamsville. Rev. Michael Hall will be officiating.
