Deepest condolences to Debbie and the rest of Lucille's family. Lucille was my first supervisor in the Purchasing Dept. at Fieldcrest on my first job back in 1968. I was so shy and awkward at 18 years old but Lucille brought me out of that. She was tough but she was fair and I respected her for that. I have always credited Lucille for helping instill in me good work ethics which stayed with me during all my working years.

Prayers for the family during this difficult time.

So sorry for your loss.
