Dear Loved Ones of Lucille Hamilton,
I am a young trans woman born in 1993. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Lucille's journey of physical & spiritual transformation ended far too soon. Every single day I think of her and pray for her loved ones.
You all have my deepest most heartfelt condolences.
Peace, Love & Light be with you.
In humble solidarity,

you we re always a great cousin i cant believe its been so long ago and yet it seems like the other day as kids we played football in the backyard and went in nanny closet and raided the candy stash and set back and watched the golden girls lol miss you cousin
Lucille, you meant a whole lot to me....your quirks were the most beautiful things I ever saw in such a confident woman. You stood up for what you believed in and I will always love you. I think of you often...whenever I see certain things or leave things for you. You were an honest friend and I am so grateful to have known you. I miss the late nights talking and the fascinating conversations you were often the leader of. I miss your smile, your laugh....your beautiful, intricate brain. Your soul was free and you made being alive fun and worthwhile. I wish I had known your mother, from the posts on here I can tell she is a wonderful woman, I can tell where you got your qualities. Again...you are missed and loved.
Tory
May God Bless you all

I only knew you for a short time, but really enjoyed your spirit and your laughter. To the family, I am so sorry for your loss, May God be with all of you at this time. Lucy was very special.
Ours prayers are with the family. Nay God comfort you in this you time of need.
Lou (as I so often called you which you hated)! Words can not express the sadness I feel to know that you are no longer here. I will never forget that special day God placed you into my life. From the time I moved into the apartments, across from you and Ms. Karen, you welcomed me with open arms and made my 1st time on my own one I will never forget. The day you and your mom moved away, I felt a piece of me moved away too. Although we didn’t see each other as often, we still remained very close friends. We are as different as night and day, but had a special bond some would never understand. I am going to forever cherish all those late night talks, going to eat Chinese whenever I wanted, trips to Wal-mart for absolutely nothing, and the infamous “stoop incident” among many more. I want you to know I love you very much and you will always have a special place in my heart!
Ms. Karen! There are times like these when we look for strength and guidance and ask why. God always know best and he will get you through this difficult time! When I heard the news I asked over and over again did they have the right person because it was so unbelievable to me. I want you know that Lou could not have been blessed with a better mother!! She loves you so very much and will be missed by many!! I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers!
Love always,
Kristal
You and your family will be in my thoughts now and in the months ahead. I only knew Lucy for a few months. During those months we had several long conversations. The Lucy I got to know was very kind, caring, soft hearted, soft spoken and truly was a beautiful soul. I know your hearts will be sad for many days, months and years to come. Take the good memories and treasure them. For they too will last for days, months, and years in the furture.
I am unable to make the services, but your family will be in my thoughts. I will hold a moment of silence on Friday for Lucy and her family.
To Lucie's Mom and family: Lucie was truly a special person who touched my life the short time I knew her. The sparkle in her eyes, her infectious laughter and her unique sense of humor... she was a blessing. She was fearless and I will always think of her when I'm faced with challenges too large for myself. Thank you for giving us Lucie. I will never forget her.
Karen,
My prayers and thoughts are with you. Lucy was a great person that had a terrific spirit. She was loved and she will be missed.
Lucie,
You were funny, bold, kind, unique; regardless of the unfortunate circumstances/influences surrounding your sudden death, I will always and forever remember you 'in' those words.
In God's Love,
Tyrone Teran
Karen, My thoughts and prayers are with you. It may seem hard and unbearable right now but in time, the pain will get a little better, it's never easy losing a loved one. I will always be around if you need to talk.
Love you Jocelyn
Lucie you were an awesome person in High School. You will truly be missed. Your family is in my prayers.
Karen,
I don't know how to begin to understand your loss, as I am sure it's overwhelming. Please know that you have many people, including me, that love you and will be ready with support and prayers in the upcoming weeks and months ahead. I will always remember Lucie as being polite, funny, with a smile for everyone.
Love ya,
Pam
