Some of my best memories as a kid are going to Pensecola and staying with Aunt Lucille and Uncle Clyde. They opened their home to us and we always felt welcomed and loved. I remember crying every time we left their house to go back to California because I loved them so much. I was blessed to have my two kids meet her last Spring. She is a very special part of my life and we will always have special memories of her and Uncle Clyde.

I will always remember Aunt Lucille as a person who always had a smile on her face. I am proud that she was my aunt. She was a loving person to her husband and to her family. From my grandparents, my Dad and all of my Uncles and Aunts,they were definitely a gift from God. Rest in peace Aunt Lucille and say hello to Daddy for me. I love you all
