However, there is one thing I can no longer wait till June 21 for: do 
we find out anything in OOP that could be construed as evidence for 
the theory that Snape was friendly with or in love with Lily? Thanks 
in advance for your help.<<

Nothing out there yet.

The theory holds intrigue for me by the mere fact that while Snape 
will berate the memory of James right and left, not a single harsh 
word will he utter about Lily...not even to bait Harry.

In fact, we've never heard Snape reference Lily at all...which is odd.
