Lucille Payne Obituary
September 25, 1931 - September 2, 2020
Finally Home!
Our beloved mother, Lucy Payne, passed from her earthly home on Wednesday, September 2.
Born Lucille Dorothy Blanck in Chicago Ill. to Joe and Gertrude Blanck and sister to Don, Jim and Joan.
One of the first employees to be hired by Spectra Physics (PSC) in Eugene, Lucy retired in 2007.
As a Christ follower, our mother believed and lived as His disciple sharing His hope, living His joy and experiencing His peace. She looked forward to sharing Christ's love with anyone who wanted to know about the hope that was in her. Her faith never waivered, and she is now eternally with her Lord and Savior.
Lucy was the mother of Connie, Dianne, Kym and Adam Payne and preceded in death by her two brothers and daughter Dianne.
We will miss you mom, you were and will remain a blessing within the many fond memories we have of you.
Love, Connie, Adam and Kym

I was one of her grandsons. I didn’t know her very well, that’s my fault not hers but what I can say about my grandma is that she was smart as they come. I remember playing scrabble with her and she played quie. I thought she was making it up but I don’t dare challenge her. Lol. I remember before coming over sometimes she would stop in at fred meyers and get ice cream sandwiches for me and my brother. She was a huge believer in God and I know that she was the one to come too if I doubted or had questions about the Bible, God... I have no doubt that she is in heaven. My last visit with her was not that long ago and I remember her saying she was ready to go home...I know she didn’t mean an earthly home...
I love you grandma Lucy and someday I will see ya soon.

I worked with Lucy since day one at Spectra Physics. She hired me when we worked in the basement of a grocery store. We were inseparable at work and after work. She prayed with me to accept the lord. We have kept in touch all these years. Need Adam to contact me.

I worked with Lucy, and we had many talks over the years. She was a true prayer warrior. She was very caring. She prayed many times for my family, and especially showed her caring spirit for my granddaughter Jenna. She always asked about her. Thank you Lucy for never wavering. You are home❤

Lucy had large following at Spectra with her daily devotionals that she would send out every morning. I had saved almost everyone and in turn would share them with my family. I traveled some with Spectra and looked forward to the encouraging words Lucy would share. Thank you Lucy for the many years of great memories
