    Your Mom was a great person and Loved by many, she also will be missed by many. It’s hard to replace a Loved one, but remember that she will always be looking over you as your new Special Angel. The pain you have in your heart cannot be replaced by words, but always remember the special times each of you and your children had with your Mom. It wasn’t easy for your Mom, as a single parent, but she survived, and in the end gave her all, to raise each of you to become who you will become as adults. I will always be there for each of you and want to give a Special Thanks to Steve, for all you did for Lucille and her family in their time of need.

I will always cherish our special conversations and her one of a kind laugh. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. We love and will miss you Lucille!!

    Our deepest condolences to the family of this beautiful soul. Aunt Lucille loved life and people more than anything. My cousins and her grandchildren were her world and it was quite evident in all she said and did for them. No words can express the great sadness felt at this time. We will forever cherish her beautiful smile, expressive laugh, and all the love shown to us throughout the years.

    Mom, I love you and miss you already. You always brought the life to the party. Now you can dance all night long and sing your heart out. You are “hands free” now you can run around and watch over all of us..you have always been my angel.

    Yolanda, Troy and family of Lucille–I’m so sorry for your tremendous loss. I knew the first time I met her at a grandson’s birthday party we would be friends. I always enjoyed seeing her whenever I visited from Flagstaff. I especially enjoyed our lunches downtown when was in Phoenix on business. I don’t think Lucille ever met a stranger. Whenever I drink kahlua I’ll think of Lucille–if I remember correctly she enjoyed that a time or two. Rest in paradise my friend.

    It was a pleasure to have worked with Lucy at the City of Phoenix Prosecutor’s Office. She was always very helpful and cheerful. My condolences to her family.
