What means the most is not the date one is born or the date one dies, but the time in between. Her time was spent building a legacy of kindness, a giving spirit, generosity; but most of all, a loving heart. She opened her home to many relatives and friends who lived with her at times. She never turned anyone away. She cared for many children, she loved to sew, cook and bake. Lucinda was always ready to feed anyone who stopped by. She was the matriarch of the Jones family and will be truly missed. The family wishes to express special thanks to the Care Center, the MMR Crew, the Buena Vista Police Department; Dr. Singh, Dr. Sudhakar, Kelly Hernandez and Evans & Browne’s Funeral Home.
