Lucille Stone Carroll, 88, was called home to be with our Lord on October 2, 2015. In keeping with her wishes, Lucille passed peacefully from this earth at home surrounded by her loving family. Born August 7th, 1927 in Arab, Alabama, Lucille moved to Huntsville with her husband Jack in 1950 to raise their family. They soon purchased land and built their home in Southeast Huntsville where they have remained. A stay-at-home Mother, Lucille loved raising her children, helping raise her grandchildren and beloved honorary granddaughter while providing a strong spiritual foundation for all. Always upbeat with a smile on her face and joy in her heart, Lucille cherished her life on this earth. Upon meeting Lucille you soon realized that she had an unexpected and quick sense of humor that caught you by surprise. A life-long Christian and charter member of the Mayfair Church of Christ in Huntsville, Lucille let the love of her Lord shine through to everyone she met and treated all with grace, kindness and compassion. Lucille always made you feel as if you were part of her family. Survivors include her loving husband of 67 years, Jack; two daughters, Pam (Jimmy Clanton) Riddle and Shelia (Malcome) Davis of Huntsville; son Maylon (Debi) Carroll of Massillon, Ohio; sister Mary Nell (Bud) Morris of Guntersville; grandchildren Christina Davis, Brandon (Cheryl) Davis, Brandie (Ray) del Valle, Valerie Wierenga, Roger (Ariel) Riddle, Christopher Carroll, Anna-Lauren Carroll, Jacqueline Black; beloved honorary grandchildren Ashley-Brooke (Goodson) Jones, Nicholas Whitehead, Nicole (Whitehead) Burgess; great-grandchildren Nicole, Maurice, Anessa, Styler, Jacob, Alec, Austin, and great-great-grandchildren Taryn, Reylen and De’Shawn. She is preceded in death by parents Oliver and Maude Stone; sisters Marie (Paul) Duren and Wynona (Frank) Adair; grandson Evan Davis and great-grandchildren Evan Glen Riddle and Mariyah Nichole Davis. Visitation will be Wednesday, October 7, at Berryhill Funeral Home from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. A chapel service will follow at 2:00 p.m. Burial will be at Huntsville Memory Gardens.
