So sorry to hear about Lucille. I am Jack's daughter. Tried to stay in contact but never could come up with an address or number. Sorry to hear about Paula and Rhonda too. Lucille was an awesome lady, what a beautiful home shes in now.
I am Jack’s niece. Jack & Lucille always attended the Wist reunions and we always loved visiting with them. Lucille was a kind and caring person. She was a great cook and liked to write. I have one of her books. Debbie (Jack’s daughter) and I kept up with Lucille for a while and then my Christmas card was returned with no forwarding address so I did not know what happened. My sympathy to her family.
With deepest sympathy for the loss of your mother . You will all be in our prayers.
So sorry to hear about your mom’s passing. Our prayers are with you and your family.
Lucille was a beautiful soul; kind, honest, and gentle with a good sense of humor. She was helpful, worked hard, ( she and Jack helped plant my orchard 25 years ago.} She was a talented writer. In her book, "God's Creation", she expressed her love for her family and her faith. , I cherish the time we spent together. Rest in peace cousin. Eldon Mitchell
