Lucille Wyatt Warren

She rejoins her husband of 67 years, W. Murray Warren who died in 2009 at the age of 100.

Her siblings Edna Mae, Francis and George Jr. also predeceased her.

She is survived by her sons and their wives; Bill and Nancy, Mack and Paula and Jim and Barb.

She is also survived by five grandchildren; Hunter, Tyler (Allison), Reed (Miriam), Claire and Laura.

Lucille and her family moved from Arkansas to Texas and back to Arkansas before eventually settling in La Vernia, TX where her mother was the switchboard operator for the local phone company. Her father died in La Vernia. Lucille attended La Vernia schools and graduated from La Vernia High School.

Lucille and Murray married in 1941 and lived in San Antonio before returning to La Vernia in 1947.

Lucille's college degree had not been completed when she began teaching in La Vernia Elementary School. She completed her Bachelors degree at Southwest Texas State Teachers College by attending Saturday classes in San Marcos. She usually got back home while the children were still asleep or so she claimed.

In addition to being a teacher and homemaker she was involved in Concrete Cemetery and The Order of the Eastern Star where she served as Worthy Matron.

The family moved to San Antonio in 1960 where Lucille continued her teaching career at Walzem Elementary School in the Northeast School District. She earned her Masters In Education at Trinity University in 1965. She taught fifth grade at Walzem for 20 years.

When she wasn't teaching her students, she was emphasizing the importance of education to her children and leading by her example.

She continued teaching in her retirement years as a docent at the Institute of Texan Cultures.

Mom's and Dad's retirement years were filled with Super Adults at Laurel Heights Methodist Church, round dancing, traveling, being friends and advisors to their children and entertaining their grandchildren.

Lucille's family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Claudia Costescu and her staff at Just Like Home care. The family also appreciates Dr. Margaret Finley's dedication to our mother's care in her declining years.

A Visitation will be held on Saturday, January 21, 2017 from 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. at Porter Loring on McCullough. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in Lucille's name to the American Cancer Society, the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, 1359 Broadway, Ste 1509, New York, NY 10018 or a charity of your choice.
