Lucinda was a loving mother, cherished daughter and loyal friend. Lucinda gleamed with confidence and internal strength. She was strong hearted, kind, sharp and sincere; she gracefully welcomed people into her home and made them feel like family. She loved to laugh and her spontaneous wit brought laughter from others. Lucinda was assertive and knew where she stood at all times. She was resilient, efficient and intelligent. She was equally warm, carefree and dedicated to those she loved. Lucinda's children were her essence. She was a natural nurturer and welcomed all children into her life as her own.
