Lieselotte (Bendisch) Morrill

Lieselotte (Bendisch) Morrill, 84, of Coventry, passed away peacefully at home on Monday morning, May 11, 2026, surrounded by the love and care of her family.

Born in Bad Nauheim, Germany, she was the beloved daughter of the late Emil and Elizabeth Bendisch. Lieselotte immigrated to the United States in the 1960s in search of new opportunities and a bright future, eventually making Rhode Island her home in the late 1980s.

Lieselotte was a woman of quiet strength and deep devotion to those she loved. Her greatest joy was the time spent with her family, creating cherished memories with generations of loved ones. She had a special affection for animals, especially her beloved dog, Honey, who brought her great companionship and comfort.

She is survived by her loving daughters, Diana Lombard and her husband, David, of Coventry, with whom she made her home, and Brenda Martin of Dalton, Georgia. She also leaves her cherished granddaughters, Melissa Martin and Angela Seymore; her step-grandchildren, David Lombard, Jr., Bethany Lombard, Adam Lombard, and Nicole Lombard; thirteen great-grandchildren; and six great-great-grandchildren. She was the mother of the late Alfred Morrill, Jr., and was also predeceased by several siblings.

In accordance with her wishes, funeral services and interment will be private, and visiting hours are respectfully omitted.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in Lieselotte’s memory may be made to the Rhode Island SPCA, 155 Plan Way, Warwick, RI 02886.
