We bought our first home in 1985 with Lucille as our realtor and still live there today. I have very often sung her praises to others. We were a young married couple and she was
wonderful and so helpful. I remember when we did our final walk thru with Lucille she opened up a bag and in it was a thermometer to check the temp in the stove to make sure it worked good. Then came out a night lite and she walked the house plugging it into outlets to make sure all was in working order. We felt like our "mom" was taking care of us. I´m not sure what all she had in that bag!
I am very sorry for your loss. I just wanted to say that at different times in your life you meet someone who touches your heart and Lucille is one of those people in our lives.
God Bless you all.

While seeing this notice of Lucille´s passing I am sad, but I´m reminded of all the happy times working with her. Lucille was a special lady and one of my favorites. My desk was next to her for years and she taught me so much. I have much love and respect for her. She is rejoined to her dear Walter. Rest In Peace my friend. Love and prayers for her family and many friends.
