Lucille Mary Andrews (nee MacDonald)
April 24, 1928 - May 30, 2023
LUCILLE MARY (MACDONALD) ANDREWS
On Tuesday May 30th 2023, our beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away peacefully, with her devoted daughter Lesly, by her side.
She is survived by her daughters April (Doug), Gayle (Gerald), and Lesly (Jerry); grandsons Rauri (Pam) and Maxwell (Megan) and great grandchildren, Addison, Ranald, & Jazz.
She was predeceased by her husband Guy Ewart Andrews, as well as her brothers Ian and Ronald MacDonald.
Born in Ontario to Hugh and Donalda, she moved for work to Cornwall then Montreal, where she met Guy. Lucille and Guy moved the family to Winnipeg in 1969 and Manitoba was her adopted home, by her choice. After moving to Winnipeg, Lucille had a successful career as a property manager and later worked for the Manitoba Office of the Rentalsman. She enjoyed garage sales, curling, golf, swimming at Grand Beach, bridge parties and travelling throughout Europe with family and friends. Her extraordinary perseverance and fortitude pulled the family through the hardest of times. As a devoted mother and grandmother, she celebrated the good times as well, often with a hearty roast beef dinner on Sunday, that featured homemade pie.
Lucille had a saying; “There is nothing wrong with leading an ordinary life.”
