She was born in Iowa, and then moved with her family to the Lebanon, Missouri area when she was a young child. After she and Truman were married, they made their home in the Brush Creek community and worked side by side in the sawmill for several years. She and Truman then moved to St. Louis, where Truman was employed by the railroad, and together they lovingly raised their children. During this time, they also were foster parents to a number of children and Lucille did babysitting for many families throughout the next several years. After Truman retired from the railroad, he and Lucille moved back to the Brush Creek area, where Lucille continued to live until moving into Lebanon a few years ago.
Lucille made her profession of faith in Christ early in her life, and was a member of Emmanuel Chapel Bible Church for many years. Later, she transferred her membership to the Ozark Bible Church, near Lebanon.
She belonged to the Ladies Society of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers in St. Louis, and enjoyed volunteering at the Hughes Senior Citizen Center in Lebanon. She liked working in her garden where she grew beautiful flowers, and enjoyed feeding and watching the birds and had a special gift for handling animals. She also did sewing and quilting in her spare time. Her family was very important to her and she especially enjoyed her grandchildren.
Lucille was a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, sister, and aunt, and was a caring neighbor and friend. She will be fondly remembered and greatly missed, but the wonderful memories she created for her family and friends will live on forever.
