Concord, North Carolina - Lucille Beaucoudray Ferrell
9/21/1925 – 3/29/2022
Our beautiful Mother passed away peacefully at 96 ½ years old on Tuesday 3/29/22 after a brief illness. Our sincere thanks to her Primary Care Doctor, David Christopherson, and all the nursing staff and Doctors of Atrium Health Hospital in Concord, NC for their compassion and care as she transitioned into the hands of Jesus. They were amazing!
She was born in New Orleans, LA. To parents Fernand & Laurentine Hyver Beaucoudray. One of 5 children: Harold, Fernand, and Raymond (all which have passed) and her sister Lourianne Steilberg of Pearl River, LA.
She fell in love with Richard Wakefield Ferrell on Ponchatrain Beach, with a bag of Popcorn in her hand, after WWII . They married and moved to Charlotte NC to start their family.
She had 3 children: Wade Ferrell, Renee Hedrick and Merle Myers. Five Grandchildren: Lisa Ferrell, Tracy Ballard, Shannon Campagna, Monica Shelton and Michael Myers. Eleven Great Grandchildren: Leigh, Amber, Forrest, Kyndal, Bailey, Sydney, Daniel, Lincoln, Lyric, Legend and Lennox… and one Great Great Grandchild, Emmy.
Mother lost her husband Richard on 3/21/1981, son Richard Wade Ferrell 8/10/21, His Daughter, Lisa Michelle Ferrell in June, 1998. There are too many other relatives to list. But, they all await her presence in Heaven. Mother loved each and every member of our family. Lucille worked her entire life providing for her family. She loved traveling and made many trips with friends and family over the years. She was an avid Gardener! Roses were her passion! She worked tirelessly in her yard until her late 80s and would have always been "Yard of the Month" . She loved cooking for the family and made every event special with her many talents. We will surely miss her Cajun specialties!
Lucille was the matriarch of our family and taught us all so many lessons of life, always with a big smile on her face. Mother will be so missed by all of us left behind. She is now dancing in Heaven with the love of her life, Richard, whom she has missed dearly for 41 years.
Lucille also loved all of her Grand-Dogs, with Lexi and Sasha Star being her constant companions over the past years. They gave her so much joy and company. She was never alone!
