LUCILLE SPENT HER LIFE CARING FOR HER FAMILY. HER THREE BOYS AND THIER HAPPINESS ABSOLUTELY MEANT EVERYTHING TO HER. SHE CHERISHED EACH OF THEM SO DEEPLY. THEY MADE HER LIGHT UP AT THE AMAZING, KIND, CREATIVE, SMART, LOVING AND SUPPORTING MEN THEY HAVE BECOME. HER DAUGHTER IN-LAW AND FUTURE DAUGHTER IN-LAW WERE TRULY DAUGHTERS IN HER BEAUTIFUL EYES. HER GRANDCHILDREN WERE HER LITTLE ANGELS FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. SHE WAS SO PROUD OF ALL THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED AND WAS THERE AS MUCH AS SHE COULD BE TO SUPPORT THEM. SHE ABSOLUTELY LOVED BEING LOVED BY HER GRAND PUPS EVERY TIME SHE WALKED IN THE ROOM. LUCILLE ENJOYED GETTING TOGETHER AND SPENDING TIME WITH HER COUSINS, NEICES, NEPHEWS AND GODCHILDREN. FAMILY WAS SO IMPORTANT. HER CHILDREN'S FRIENDS WHERE VERY MUCH A PART OF THE FAMILY. THEIR DOOR WAS ALWAYS OPEN AND SHE WELCOMED THEM ALL DAY OR NIGHT. SHE ADORED HER FRIENDSHIP WITH HER GIRLFRIENDS AND LOOKED FORWARD TO CRAFT NIGHTS WITH THEM. LUCILLE ENJOYED HER CREATIVE SIDE; KNITTING GIFTS FOR THOSE SHE LOVED. SHE WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT MAKING TIME TO CREATE KNITTED CHEMO CAPS AND BEAUTIFUL BLANKETS FOR THE VETS SO THEY COULD FEEL EXTRA LOVE AT A DIFFICULT TIME. SHE LOVED TO LAUGH, SING AND DANCE; AND OUTLET SHOPPING, PURSES, BAKING AND A COCKTAIL OR A GLASS OF WINE OR TWO WERE HER FAVORITES. LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT HER IN IT.
