Lucille was born January 3, 1932, in a farmhouse in rural Sumner to Herbert and Cynthia (Wingert) Wempen.

In 1948, she was united in marriage to Donald Lange at the age of 16. This was the beginning of her walk with God and each other. Her life with Don was exemplified by what was dearest to her heart; God, family and country Lucille’s first priorities. Their journey is now complete.

The couple made their home in Gibbon where they were blessed with two children.

Although her family was small, they did go forth and multiply.

Lucille is survived by her two children, John (Tammy) Lange and Bonnie (Craig) Johnson; six grandchildren; 16 greatgrandchildren; four great-greatgrandchildren; younger brother, Leonard Wempen; and several nieces, nephews and extended family and friends.

Lucille was preceded in death by her parents; husband; five sisters; one brother; one grandchild; and two great-greatgrandchildren.
