Lucille has been a true friend of Delta Pathology and Forensic Consultants Medical Group for many, many years. She ran a wonderful facility and it has been my pleasure to know her for more than 30 years. It is conforting to know that she has left her legacy in the form of a funeral home that is one of the best.

The Bible says "to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord" So I know Lucille was dancing through the pearly gates of heaven with all of heavens angels. Being the visionary we all knew her to be she has already started building a new ballroom for dancing with all of heavens angels. But of course over in the coner there is a special place for her to do hand writing analyses in between dances. Her favorite J Hawks from Agra Kansas are all there to welcome her home. Lucille I have missed our music circus days and our dinners into the late night hours. You were my mentor, my friend and always there when I lost me. Lucille I know your worst nightmare came true for a while but now you are at peace with our lord. As we discused I will meet you just inside the eastern gate.
Manteca has lost a Great Lady, A pioneer who's integrity was inpeccable and a heart as big as the ocean who loved her family and community with all her heart, mind and soul.
Love to all the family,
Janet Dooley

I was so sorry to hear of Lucille's passing. I was born and raised in Manteca, and on numerous occasions attended funerals at both the old and the new facility. Paul and Lucille were wonderful and caring people who made difficut times more tolerable. I will always remember Lucille and her kindness at the passing of my Grandmother in 1982. My 6 year old son insisted on going to the viewing and upon arriving became very upset when he saw his Great Grandmother. Lucille very gently pulled him away and took him into her office to calm him down and explain to him that death was a natural cycle of life. What a wonderful legacy she has left for her family.My thoughts and prayers are with Lucille's family at this very difficult time.
