Grandmother of Jason Lasser, Avi Lasser and his wife Jessica and Great Grand-daughter Maya. Sister of the late Arnold Federman and Gladys Federman. Lucille was fond of her many nieces and nephews.
Lucille grew up in the West End of Boston and graduated from Girls High School in 1944 and went to work in the Charleston Navy Yard. She married Lenny in 1950 and moved to Holbrook in 1958. Lucille continued her love of Boston working at Tufts Dental School for 25 years. Lucille will be remembered for her convictions for Boston culture, Arts and Theater, and political discussions. Fiercely independent, she loved to travel exploring China, Paris, London and Italy to name a few. She ushered at local theaters, such that everyone knew her in the Boston theater scene.

She really had a love for theatre and many other interests. It was always a pleasure to chat with Lucille when she called to renew her subscription to The Jewish Advocate.
