Lucile graduated from Flushing High School in 1929 and later received her Bachelor's degree from Eastern Michigan University. She taught for 40 years in Swartz Creek and Flint. She was a member of Iota Nu-Pi Omicron Charitable Sorority. Lucile was an accomplished seamstress and enjoyed various crafts. As a single mother, she made sure to make every holiday and special occasion memorable for her daughter and she was very involved with her grandson, who was the light of her life.
Lucile leaves behind to cherish her memory, her daughter, Andrea and husband Zenith Anson; grandson, Drew and wife Katie Anson; great-grandchildren, Jack and Emma Anson. She was also preceded in death by her siblings, Isabel Pettman, George Darby, Arthur Darby, Cyrus Darby and Adelaide Terry.
