Floyd Richard Lilly

Do you have any information on my grandfather, Floyd Richard Lilly? He went by "Dick," because he hated his father, presumably Floyd. His father died of Bright's disease after extensive traveling - away from his family. Dick was raised by his sisters around Detroit, I think. The sisters were heavily into Christian Scientists. They were very well-to-do, even after the Depression. My mother mentioned butlers and a white baby grand piano. My mother, Mercedes Ruth Lilly Brown, was born 5/2/25 to Dick and Opal. Oh, he was also an Ann Arbor graduate and pioneer photoengraver. My mother has some very damaged wax records of him speaking. He died before I was born.
