My condolences to Lucille’s family and friends. She was a tremendous gift to my family 17 years ago when she took care of our precious baby girl. Lucille was like a grandma to Bailey and I am so thankful that we found her. Not only was Lucille a great caregiver to Bailey but I enjoyed getting to know her on a daily basis.

I just met Lucille about 10 years ago. It was special if you were treated to something Lucille had baked! She had a great smile and always lit up the room. She was a loyal friend to Alma. Sympathy to the Family of Lucille.

Lucille was a definite fixture at our jazz events as she so enjoyed the music, the friendships, the many bands…as we sometimes traveled together to other jazz festivals, we could always count on her to supply us with delicious & tasty treats that were home-made from her kitchen. We remember her enthusiastic support & determination to keep attending as long as she possibly could – now she can be surrounded by all the jazz greats & keep those toes a-tappin’!! Our sympathies to Lucille’s family.

To the family of Lucille~
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother/grandmother. Lucille was a friend of my “Nanny” and always had a treat for my two daughters whenever we saw her. I will always remember Lucille as having beautiful collectibles and making delicious cookies. Sincerely- Nikki Barbour Johnson
