Hide AdDetails of her funeral have been released by Lincolnshire Police on the family’s request.
A spokesman for the force said: “It is expected that many members of the community will want to attend the service, and therefore access to the church may be limited. The procession will follow the same route out of the town.
“The service will be followed by a private burial which will be for the family only.”
Attendees are asked to refrain from throwing flowers while the funeral procession passes due to the risk of spooking the horses, the force adds.
Lilia died on July 28 following an incident in Fountain Lane, Boston.
A man has been charged with her murder and is currently remanded in prison.
