I worked with Dave in Dayton and what a fine Christian man he was. We became such good friends and shared many laughs over the years. He had such a love for his wife, children and grandchildren and even though I never met some of them, I felt I knew them all. I will miss his wonderful sense of humor and his love for Christ. Until we meet again Dave,

So sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Lucid. It was a pleasure that I had the opportunity to meet him when his company managed our county Care Center. He spoke often of his family and the gatherings he shared with them. He loved his grandchildren! Cherish all those memories and he will live on in each of you.

Always a gentleman! Absolutely loved his wife and children -- was so proud of each of them. I worked with David several years in Dayton and continued to enjoy seeing him at OHCA every year. He will certainly be missed -- but, left his mark on the senior health care industry in Ohio.
Blessings on his family.

I am in tears thinking of Dave. Trelawney Ct. was never the same after your wonderful family moved. Great memories of growing up and Dave was a big part of that! Love to all of the Lucids.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Dave. I was an administrator and worked with Dave until I left to be a stay-at-home mom in the early '90's. Wonderful man and mentor . I'm sure he will be greatly missed by family and friends. Prayers of comfort and peace to all who knew him.
