At the age of sixteen Lucille decided to move to Florida to live with her sister Thelma. During this time, she met and married Charlie D. Whitehead Sr. and moved to Jacksonville, Florida. During their marriage they were blessed with six children, four beautiful daughters, Gearldine, Barbara Gale, Mary Lou, and Betty Sue, and two handsome sons Charlie D. Jr, and William Franklin Whitehead.
