After high school, Lucine went on to doing farm work and later housekeeping work, which she really enjoyed. Lucine took on the role of wife, mother, & later grandmother like it was second nature. She loved cooking and had hopes of opening her own restaurant one day. Lucine was such a caring and nurturing woman who made sure everyone was taken care of, if you had a problem, she definitely had a solution.

Lucine was also not afraid to speak her mind & put us in our place. She loved going to the thrift store, doing crossword puzzles, and watching the “stories” and Golden Girls.
