Lucille Glenena Skinner

She was a loving Mother, Grandmother, Mimi, and Aunt to so many! Lucille had many names throughout her life and went by her middle name Glenena for most of her life, and that is how most knew her.

She was born on July 20, 1937 in a small town in Colorado to Bertha Lucille Weldon and Glen Krieg. She grew up in Holly Colorado and kept in touch with her friends from school throughout their lives. Glenena married Audry Dee Langford in 1958 then had their only daughter Stacy in 1961, and soon moved to New Mexico. Unfortunately Dee passed away in 1975 in a bad car accident. Glenena remarried Arthur Lon Skinner in 1977. She loved Art’s boys Darin and Dan as if they were her own. Art passed in 2003 after 26 years of marriage.

Glenena worked as a bank teller in Farmington for several years before retiring and moving to Texas after Art passed to be with her daughter and grandchildren. In 2010 Glenena became a great-grandmother to her first great grandchild Aiden who gave her the best name she could ever have and that name is Mimi! She truly was the best Mimi anyone could ask for.

Glenena lived her life with a deep faith in God, and this faith guided her through her life. She trusted God every step of the way. Her unwavering faith in God was her constant source of strength.

She was preceded in death by her parents Glen and Bertha Krieg, her first husband Audry Dee Langford, her sister Bonnie Murphy, her second husband Arthur Lon Skinner, and her brother James ‘Jimmy” Krieg.

She is survived by her daughter Stacy Thuman and son in law William “Bill” Thuman. Her two stepsons Darin Skinner and his wife Vanessa Skinner, Dan Skinner and his wife Joan Skinner. Her grandchildren Kristi Canady and her husband Michael “Alex” Canady, Stephanie Middleton and her husband Thomas (Tommy) Middleton, William Thuman, Venice Skinner, Deahnna Skinner, Kaleb Skinner, Matteo Skinner and Andrew Stokes. Her great grandchildren Aiden Canady, Hailey Canady and MaKenzie Canady.

She is also survived by her niece, Cindy Bartone along with Cindy’s children Kaylyn Rivas and Kevin Bartone along with their families. Her sister-in-law, Danna Krieg, her nieces, Jammie Bryan and Tina Pepper, her nephew, Eric Murphy and so many more.

Glenena lived a long full life and had so many people who loved her and she loved them all so much!

Before her brother Jimmy passed in 2020 her brother instead of saying goodbye he said, “See you in paradise!”

She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her!

Lucille Glenena Skinner will be laid to rest next to her husband Arthur Skinner in Green Lawn Cemetery in Farmington New Mexico.
