Obituary of Lucille 'Lu' McClure (nee Baker)

On Sunday, June 10th, 2018, Lucille (Lu) passed away, peacefully surrounded by family. Cherished wife of John for nearly 73 years. Loving mother to Suzanne and Doug (Kathy). Best Nana ever to Krys (Kim), Tanya (Lennie), and Jenna, and proud Nana (Lu) to great-grandchildren Kagney, Kache, and Johnathan. She was predeceased by her brother, George Baker. Lu was a dedicated and compassionate nurse with her career culminating as a research assistant to Dr. Bondy. She had been extensively involved with nursing care in the RCAF Air Division in France. Lu was instrumental in the administration efforts to build a new CNIB and, during the course of her life, she also helped the community by being responsible for a facet of the annual church bazaars held by First-St. Andrew’s, and by delivering ‘Meals on Wheels’ for over 35 years. An avid golfer, Lu was captain of the Ladies’ Niners for a year at the Sunningdale Golf Club. We will all miss this extraordinarily kind and caring woman. A Celebration of Lu’s Life will be conducted at WESTVIEW FUNERAL CHAPEL, 709 Wonderland Road North, London on Tuesday, June 12th, 2018 at 1:00 p.m., with visitation one hour prior to the service. The family wishes to thank all of the staff at Highview Residences for their incredible support, compassion and caring during the past two years. Those wishing to make a donation in memory of Lu are asked to consider the CNIB.
