I wish to convey my condolences to Lucille's family - especially her daughter Diane, whom I met while Lucille was a resident at Milder Manor. Christ said "...learn from me for I am meek and humble of heart..." I think Lucille was truly Christ's student and in the twilight of her life, she personified meekness and humility as she excepted and united her sufferings to the sufferings of her Lord Jesus. I am so blessed to have known Lucille for just a little while and to have been asked to be involved in one aspect of her health care needs. I was deeply moved at witnessing the love showered upon Lucille by her daughter Diane whenever I went to see Lucille. May the Perpetual Light of Christ be always Lucille's. What a beautiful gift that God would choose to bring Lucille home to him on the Feast of All Saints - November 1st.

Dear cousins, I'm sorry for your loss. This is to let you know that Lucille's brother, Carl, passed away Saturday, November 5, 2005. He also loved his cats.

I worked with Lucille for many years at NDE. She was a gift to us. She was witty and a positive thinker. If there was a day she didn't feel well she would say she was "puny and witless" that day. She is probably seeking Elvis now. Loved her.
