Lucille "Nanny" Duncan

Lucille Duncan, 93, of Lawson, Missouri, went home to be with the Lord on December 12, 2025, surrounded by loved ones.

Lucille was born on October 6, 1932 to Charles and Virginia VanGundy. She married Marvin E. Duncan on June 9, 1950 and was a preacher's wife for 50 plus years. They raised three boys, Gary, Mike, and Kenny. She retired from the banking industry after 35 years. After Marvin retired from preaching, they traveled as Evangelists and enjoyed seeing the country as he continued his ministry. They continued their love for traveling and became 'Snow Birds', residing in Texas during the winter months. Once Marvin was diagnosed with Parkinson's, they chose to spend the remainder of their time at home with family.

Lucille was lovingly known as "Nanny." She helped to raise all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She nurtured a love for adventure within them by taking them each on memorable trips throughout their childhood; journeys that stretched from the East coast to the West coast. Aside from family, she loved to spend time at the beach, attend gospel jamborees, and spoil her family while always in search of a bargain. Her family could always look to her for support, guidance, and unconditional love.

She is preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, her parents, baby brother VanGundy, and her grandmother.

She is survived by her three sons, Gary and Jackie Duncan of Licking, MO, Mike and Sara Duncan of Alabama, and Kenny and Anita Duncan of Lawson, Missouri. She has seven granddaughters, Miranda Denmark (Scott), Holly Halbert (Chris), Sheila Kessler (Corey), Rachael Peak (David), Tammy Cespedes (Armando), Shannon Alter (Justin), and Erica Ritter (Scott). She has 15 great grandchildren, Ashton, Gabriel, Elijah, Colt, Kenzie, Madi, Colby, Madeline, John, Brody, Preston, Quinton, Ethan, Colin, and Ella. She has four great-great grandchildren, Ella, Sloan, Hudson, and Shea.

All services will be held at Old Union Church on C Highway in Lawson, Missouri. The visitation will be held on Monday, December 15, 2025 from 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. The funeral will be held on Tuesday, December 16, 2025 at 1:00 P.M.

Arrangements are in care of Bross & Spidle Funeral Home Lawson Chapel.
