After her retirement Lucille continued to work hard taking care of her special needs boys and she became a Volunteer at the Hospital where she loved helping with the blood drives, making corn pops for the Bake Sales and helping at the fair.

Lucille kept a beautiful yard and garden, she loved flowers, which were evident if you saw her yard. She was a great neighbor and friend to everyone she met, she could talk to anyone, she was kind and fun to be around. Lucille was happiest when she was busy.

Lucille loved to travel and enjoyed anything musical. As a family they loved to camp, boat and snowmobile. Having two special needs sons Lucille was a dedicated mother and made sure they had good experiences.

Lucille was happiest when she was busy, she loved visiting friends, working on puzzles, doing word finds, going shopping, keeping her home beautiful, getting her hair done every week, and keeping herself looking beautiful. But most of all she loved people! Lucille could talk to anyone, and she would make them feel like family.

As Lucille got older and needed extra help she moved into the Heritage Senior Living Center in Preston where she was loved and well cared for. She enjoyed the activities, the employees and other residents. Lucille loved those that came to visit her. She looked forward to her special friend Tina Fryar taking her to get her hair done every Thursday, followed by lunch and a ride. She loved going for rides and enjoying the beauty around her.
