Emmie Sathy was named Lombard’s 2021 Lilac Queen during the May 6 coronation ceremony in Lilacia Park. She was one of five Lilac Princesses to take the stage at the beginning of the ceremony. She soon accepted the crown, sash and cape as this year’s Lilac Queen. This year’s coronation continued a tradition that began 91 years ago. Lombard’s first Lilac Queen was crowned in 1930. Queen Emmie is a senior at Glenbard East High School. She will attend Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee.
