I am so sorry about your Mother’s Passing. The last time I saw her was at Apple bees with Cathy and she was in very good spirits. Take care.

Dave & Sybil,We are SO SORRY to read of the passing of Lucille. I (Kathy) can see why they were such dear friends of yours. In years past, I delivered flowers for them on special occasions, and Darrell and Lucille were two of the kindest, sweetest people I knew. Ironically I was just mentioning them to Hank the other day & reminiscing about the flower delivery times for them and how sweet they both were.
Sending our love & sympathy to you and to all of Lucille’s loved ones.
Kathy and Hank

I have so many wonderful memories of Lucille and Darrell when they would visit my dad and step mom in Everson. My deepest condolences to the family, she was a wonderful lady.

I’m so sorry for your loss. She was my second mom for years. Some things I remember about Lucille is she used to say: “geez Louise”, ” for Pete’s sake”, “for pity sake”. I now say those things too..then people around me start to say them.
When i was little I used to bring her flowers on mayday. Not my mom, but yours.
