  • I had the pleasure of getting to know Lucille through the friendship I shared with her kids Louise and Rene. We also shared a few coffee times together and fun times. I will miss her. My prayers are with her family at this time. - Posted by: shelley Foss (melnyk) (friend of family) on: Aug 15, 2012

  • Lucille, I have many beautiful memories of spending time with you when our girls were born, and the boys to follow. We spent much precious time together. You were always there for anyone who needed you. And your sense of humour was something I always loved and admired. It is good to know that you're at peace now and no longer suffering, it was so hard to see you suffer the way you did. We all know that this is not goodbye, its not the end and I'm looking forward to the day that I will see you again. God bless you sis. All my love Lil. - Posted by: Lil Bouchad (Sister) on: Jan 28, 2012

  • Lucille, Words cannot express the loss and hurt I feel. I was so fortunate to spend time with you and get to know each other all again. We shared and made memories that will always be in my heart and thoughts. You were such a brave soul and never waivered and for that I applaud you. I would never change the time I had spent with you, you come to mind often and I have my moments where I cry, but keep reminding myself you are not suffering anymore and it helps heal that pain. Lucille, you were so loved and still are, may God embrace you in his arms, rest in peace my dear sister. As Always Love Sylvia - Posted by: Sylvia Clark (Sister) on: Jan 27, 2012
