In Memory of
Lucilda Martin Brown
-

Lucilda Brown was a beacon of light that has shined since her birth in St, Elizabeth, Jamaica.  At 92 years old, she died peacefully at home, in Fresno, TX on 7/2/24, surrounded by the love and comfort of family.  She was fiercely devoted to her 4 daughters: Mervilyn, Jennifer, Phyllis, and Veronica and 10 grandchildren:   Renée, Ricardo, Kadian, Andrea, Christopher, Stephany, Orette, Dwight, Dwayne, and Latisha. Her light continues to shine through her legacy of 24 great grandchildren and 3 great-great grandchildren.  She worked at West Indies Pulp and Paper for 17 years prior to retiring.   Later, she utilized her entrepreneurial skills as a baker to support her family after she was predeceased by her beloved husband Stanley Brown.  She emigrated to the USA in 1996.  Lucilda is also predeceased by her great-granddaughter Jennifer Rose, and 8 brothers: Harold Forbes, Rudolph Martin, Rev. Alphonso Edwin Martin, Leaford Martin, Rev. Vincent Martin, Wella Martin, and Rupert Martin.  Her sole surviving sibling is Imogene Mullins.   Lucilda will always be remembered for her generosity, superb cooking skills, congenial personality, her love for Christ, her dancing skills, and being a cool grandma that even rode a motorcycle.

Funeral services are scheduled for Friday, July 12, 2024 in the Chapel of Beresford Funeral Service.  Visitation will begin at 12:30 pm and the funeral at 1:30 pm.  Burial will follow at Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery (12800 Westheimer Rd, at Dairy Ashford).

I remember when I was about 7 or 8 years old, Aunty Sharon send Nicky and I to spend summer at Aunty Shiela house in Kingston, we would go to Mama house and play, and she would say " weh di country pickney dem deh, come fi suck suck". Mama would go to the market and we would wait for to come across that small Golly bridge with bags heavier that us. She would always have treats for us.

Mama would be calling for me, and she called every name till she came upon my own name, I would always, " it's Easha mama", she says, " too much pickney, mi can't even member mine own name sometimes".

Those momories I will forever hold close to my heart.

Imogene says" Mi sister just gone before, I will see her soon with my brothers' "

Easha.

Mama words can't express the hurt I feel knowing that you are no longer here with me. I'm sorry I didn't get to see you before you go and that hurt the most. To write what you mean to me would take up all the space on this platform...you are a legend, you would always say " a mi name Lucilda Brown wen me talk no dog back". We had some awesome time with you. You were a one in million grandmother to me and a great grandmother to Antoinette. You will forever and always be in our hearts. We love you, until we meet again.

My nine years having Ms Brown as a coworker, developed into a lifetime of friendship, she was like a mother to me and grandmother to my children, I would take her to family functions with me and my children birthday celebrations as well, she is well known to my sisters and my mother . She was always a beam of light and always kept me laughing with her funny conversations. There were some trying times I went through as a single mother then, she would always encouraged me, I was the daughter she never birth. My children were sadden of her passing, we will missed her smile that brightens the heart of whomever she comes in contact with.Haven is now enjoying your singing, dancing and laughter of your funny conversations. Missing you. Olivia and family 🪽🪽
