    Lucille was such a sweet friend to me when I moved here. Our WMU work together enabled me to grow so much as a Christian. It was a privilege to know and love her. We know she is home. Albert has such great memories of growing up together. She will be missed by many. Albert and Susan Hennington.

    Francis, Angie, and Kids,
    We are so sorry for your loss and are grateful for the impact that Jesus made through her on others. The other comments show how loving and caring she was to many. We pray that the assurance of her relationship with the Saviour will comfort and encourage you during this time.

    We love you!

    She was a beautiful lady inside and out ❤️
    I sure loved her, she was always someone you could talk to. She found out my daughter wanted to have a pool party for her birthday one year She opened her home to my little girl a long time ago she let us have a pool party at her pool. I’ll never forget that, my daughter is now 37 years old. Christian ladies like her make impressions that last a lifetime.
    God bless you all ??❤️

    I adored your Mother so much she was a precious lady. I got to know her over the years by seeing her at the beauty shop.
    She was always so pretty and we hugged all the time. I know y’all are heart broken and will miss her so much and a lot of people were blessed to know her and I was one of them.
