Aunt Lucille was a jewel. I have great memories of my younger days visiting Aunt Lucille and what a kind person she was. I remember my sweet Mom telling me about her & Betty visiting her during the most trying times of my Mom's life. I am so thankful for Betty and Aunt Lucille. I will always appreciate your kindness and caring hearts. Love always, Deb

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Ms. Lucy. It was such a pleasure to take care of her and chat with her when she was in Atlanta. I was shocked and I think she was shocked as well when I told her I was from Shorterville and knew some of the same people. I will always remember our interaction as it provided a joyful ride to the hospital. I am currently a RN still in Atlanta with all of my family there who have passed on. My condolences Leonard Gaines
