I am sorry to hear that Lucie has passed.  I know that she is now with the Lord.  She was very helpful to me when I began teaching fourth grade at Nitrauer Elementary School in 1972.

Mrs. Wiggins will be missed.  I had her as a teacher when I was in 3rd grade, in 1987-88. She was my favorite teacher ever.  She would let me stay after school to play on the computer and would get me chocolate milk and would bring her puppy in the class room. The class loved that!!! I’m 40 years old and still remember! She  was a wonderful woman and teacher!

Please accept our sincere sympathy at your family’s loss. Lucie was a wonderful neighbor and friend.  May she Rest In Peace in God’s heavenly Home.   Clarence and Mary Best and Family
