Lucille Hurd

Lucille Hurd, 90, Marion, went to be with her Lord and Savior and to join her husband, Rev. Charles Tipton Hurd, on Monday, June 21, 2021.

On August 11, 1930, Lucille was born at home in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, to Thomas Calvin and Caroline (Cooper) Miller. She was one of eleven siblings. At the age of 18, she married the love of her life, Charles, on May 7, 1949. She was married for 62 years until he went to be with Jesus on December 11, 2011. They were in ministry for 60 years and pastored for 53 years. Charles always called Lucille “his sunshine”. She would often sing her favorite song, “Till the Storm Passes By”, as a solo in church. Her favorite hymn was “Amazing Grace”.

At home, Lucille loved to read her Bible, play her piano, and do word puzzles. She also enjoyed her birds and squirrels that she liked to feed. She was crazy about Christmas! She loved holidays with her family and loved cooking for everyone!

Surviving are her six children, Christina Lynn (Vern) Rumple, Dennis Michael (Patricia) Hurd, Charles Phillip (Stephanie) Hurd, Mark Robin (Kay) Hurd, Elizabeth Mechelle (David) Smith, and David Andrew (Ellen) Hurd; as well as numerous grandchildren (Jeff and Jason, whom she helped raise as her own), great-grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.

At Lucille’s request, there will be a private burial, and she will be buried next to her beloved husband at Grant Memorial Park.

Arrangements are entrusted with Needham-Storey-Wampner Funeral Service, North Chapel, 1341 N. Baldwin Ave., Marion, IN.
