Lucile was a smart, enjoyable person who loved the church, and attended regularly in her wheelchair with her caregiver, Elizabeth Edmondston. She was severely disabled by cerebral palsy at birth. My sister Madge and I enjoyed watching t.v., playing dominoes and eating ice cream with Lucile when we were children visiting her. She was very good at dominoes, displaying gestures of glee, whenever she was successful at the game. Lucile spelled letters with difficulty using her fingers to shape the letters as best she could. She always nicely offered us a piece of her chocolates. She was a very inspiring person and friend to us, and we always liked going to visit her. It was a short walk to her house with only one house between her house and our grandmother's. (written by millie)
