Lucille was born and raised in South Omaha in the Brown Park area. She lived in a 7-block radius her entire life until moving a year after her husband’s death in 1995.

She graduated from South High school in 1942. After completing comptometer school, she got a job with Union Pacific Railroad where she worked for the next 12 years. While working at Union Pacific she served as a Majorette in the Union Pacific Drum and Bugle corp.

At Assumption Church in 1954, she married Michael “Mike” Krupski Jr. and went on to have 5 children in a 12-year span.

Lucille was a devote Catholic and faithful member of Assumption Church for over 70 years.
She enjoyed working in her flower garden. She loved her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Some of her favorite things were visiting with her family and friends, dogs, watermelon, crossword puzzles and chocolate.

She will truly be missed. Rest in eternal peace.
