The best memories that I have of my Grandparents are going to the "old house" to see the bees and eat watermelon on the porch. Grandma would always put on her straw hat to keep the sun off and down the field we would go!

I work with the farm office in Shelby. I always enjoyed talking with Lucille. She would call about her CRP acreage and we would always end up talking about other things. She was a very nice lady and I will miss talking with her.

This gracious woman is already missed by so many who loved her so much. I know I will always remember the weeks I spent at Grandmother's house and all the wisdom she passed along to me. Nothing brought me greater joy than taking Sam to see her - because she took so much pride in being a great grandmother too. Lots of love to Dad and Kathy as they grieve this great loss.
Love,
Joy
