lily evans, who wasn’t afraid to stick up for her friends and stick up for what she thought was right no matter what people said about her.

lily evans, who fought for a cause she believed in, who was a battle weary war veteran by the time she turned 20.

lily evans, a mother, a wife, a best friend, a fighter, a vivacious and charming young lady who was quick with a wand

lily evans, who sacrificed herself for her son, who’s love was strong enough to protect him for years to come.
