Aunt Lucille was such a sweet person. We used to live 3 houses from her, way back when. Our 3 children used to sneak down and play at her & Squirrely's house, all the time. If I could not find them, just go down the street and there they were, bothering her, and getting a cookie to eat. Will miss her, as the whole family will. My heart goes out to her extended family.

Love,
Barbara Ann, Tom and children, Rick, Vicky & Randy.

Remember lots of good times at Aunt Lucille's when I was a child. Going there to make candy. I always liked that she had a cocker spaniel! Just many good times there. May God be with you all in your time of loss. Our prayers are with you all.
