I will always remember my Aunt Lucille as a strong, fun and energetic woman who loved life, her family and her many friends. I have very special memories of our families growing up together, laughing and enjoying Sunday dinners and our visits to the "country". And later, such great times on the Bingo Bus that Aunt Lucille and Maureen ran and our many trips to Atlantic City. But most of all, I loved our long talks and visits, her motherly advice, her laugh and her special way of guiding me through some difficult times. People say that my Aunt was a very "lucky" $$ lady. And she was..but it is me who feels lucky to have her in my life. I will cherish our relationship always. My dear cousins, Gloria and Denise, my deepest sympathies. You are in my thoughts and prayers now and always.

I consider myself very lucky to have gotten the opportunity to meet both Lucille and Maureen while working in Siena Cardiology. I will miss them both very much and it is bittersweet to know that they have reunited. Cherish your memories with this very special woman and thoughts and prayers to her family.

Mom, You were a strong independent woman who raised Maureen, Denise and me to be the same. You taught us the importance of family. I have fond memories of growing up spending Sundays and summers at Rocky Point with Maureen, Denise and all our Aunts, Uncles and cousins. Denise and my cousins' love and friendship have been a great comfort to me at this most difficult time. You always told me you had a great life with no regrets and I know you are at peace with Maureen, Daddy, Nana and Grandpa Joe. I will miss you and Maureen terribly. You will be in my heart forever.

My Aunt Lucille was the happiest and most loving person that God ever bestowed upon us! She brightened up every room more than anyone you'll meet in your lifetime! What a long and wonderful life she had sharing her love with family and friends! Of course, we'll always love her for her dynamic personality but, for me, her big smiley laugh said it all! There's no doubt that Aunt Lucille is in heaven with my mother, father, grandmother and the rest of their gang,,, sitting around a big table having coffee, cake and uncontrollably laughing about their decades together,,, and that's just one life lesson they left us!

I had been blessed by having the honor to know and care for Lucille since 2005 here at Siena Cardiology. She always came in with a smile and her positive attitude toward life was an inspiration to all she graced with her presence. I will miss her and her stories of her casino activities, but most of all, I will miss her hugs. My condolences to Gloria and the rest of her family and may you all embrace your memories of this special lady.
God Bless you all!
