"To Woodard Family:I have known Lucille for about 14years. She was a very sweet woman and will be missed by many. I believe some of her happiest days were the days she boarded the "Bus" to go to the Casinos because she got to see and visit with lots of her friends. She was always very pleasant and never a bother to anyone. Lots of us are thinking of you at this difficult time with sympathy and understanding. May your memories bring you peace, comfort and strength. Patsy Gerber & Friends
