Remembering Aunt Lucille Muirhead


     My cousin, Dan Hatcher, was thoughtful enough to post his thoughts about the memorial service for my mother, Lucille Muirhead, that I decided to share his Facebook entry on my blog site so that it wouldn't get lost with time.


Dan Hatcher
Connie and I had a busy day driving down to Roseburg and back. We went down to my Aunt Lucille's funeral service. She is my Dad's next older Sister and would've been 87 at the end of the year. She is now with the Lord and has a perfect body and no pain. Dad has one more older Sister, my Aunt Doris, and she is still getting around wonderfully. It was nice seeing so many of my first cousins that I hadn't seen for awhile. My cousins there (by age) were; Aunt Lucille's children; David, Melody, Laurie, and Monte and Aunt Doris's children; Ronald, Richard, and Ruth. Cousin AIM Missionary, Ron Holcomb, helped officiate and gave a wonderful message. Grand daughter Lindsey Quigley, Laurie and David's daughter, played piano and did a beautiful job.

Dan Hatcher Here is Aunt Lucille's obituary put together by Monte. He did a wonderful job. Please keep Monte in prayer, too! He has taken care of his Mom for a very long time and is dealing with a lot of serious things. God Bless you!

Rosalie Pitts Thanks for the update, I talked to my Mom, Doris and got her report also. I would have liked to be there, but the good reports are next best.
Dan Hatcher I would've loved seeing you Rosalie! Seeing three of your siblings and your folks was pretty good, though.
Rosalie Pitts Thanks, Given the weather, and the miles, over 50% isn't bad.
And I would like to meet Connie, too.
My preference has always been reunions at weddings instead of funerals, but when the funeral is for someone who knew that she was going to be with Jesus, then it is a happy/sad occasion....See More
Laurie Muirhead Quigley Rosalie! So glad you got a report from your mom. It was SUCH a special time to talk with all the cousins and reminisce. Also, to hear of all the sweet conversations had with Mom during her last few days here on earth. Such a gift for us and a foretaste of eternity, I know!!!
Dan Hatcher Rosalie Pitts , I know what you mean about the happy/sad... For the Believer, and their family, it should be joyous. Sometimes hard for us to wrap our heads around. A faith lesson for me was your Grandpa Holcomb's service... I remember that as the first one I ever came away from, feeling that eternal hope!
