June and I send our deepest sympathy to you and your family. I will sorely miss Lucille. I knew her and her sweet husband from Church when I was a "little boy" and was in her Home Room Class when I was a student at Hall High. We had a professional relationship for many years after I returned home from Medical School. May she now Rest in Peace and paint many beautiful scenes for her Lord and Savior. You will also be in our prayers.
