My Aunt Lucille was a kind, caring, wonderful lady. I don’t remember her ever getting angry or being unkind. My Mom said Aunt Lucille was a Saint and I believe she was. Now she is happy in Heaven, at peace.
Lucille was a wonderful friend and neighbor. We enjoyed many hours watching the Royals or just talking. I had no idea when I moved in next door to her that it included gaining the friendship of a very special person. I’m going to miss her more than words can say.

Lucille took care of both of my boys over 30 years ago. We lived on 115th terrace and Lucille lived a few blocks away. We even called her in the middle of the night when my son Shawn was born. She got up about midnight, put my son Chris in bed, and got him off to school the next day while we were at the hospital. I’ve always wondered how she was and now I know she lived a wonderful, full life with family and friends. God bless her and peace to all.
Aunt Lucille was a rock in the Glossip family. Every time we had a reunion or thanksgiving we could always count on aunt Lucille. She was an earthly saint. Never once in all the years did I ever see her angry. She told me not to fret it all comes out in the end and its not the end as yet. Whenever we exchanged Christmas Cards she always sent me one back and every time she always included a note to remind me not to forget the rosary .
Today my rose bushes bloomed and I knew it was going to be a good day. I know that I am going to see a lot of signs you are watching over your loved ones. I bet you are already working on a vegetable and flower garden in heaven. I Imagined that you were having a party and a feast with your mother, father siblings, son, daughter, husband and so many more loved ones. Many people in heaven are so happy right now. I imagine God giving her thanks for her faith, love, compassion, abd so much more. I can’t help but think she is no longer frail but strong and most definitely looking after the rest of us here.
I will never forget the things you taught me in life, which was so much.
You are so loved and admired. Thank you for everything you have ever done.
You are the best!
My deepest sympathy to the Lucille Glossip family. I brought communion to Lucille several times. She was a wonderful lady. I’m glad to have known of this sweet lady.
To Every Thing, there is a season….
Lots of great memories, goodbye beloved aunt Lucille.
