Lucille graduated from Slater High School and worked at Younkers in downtown Ames, College Savings Bank and River Valley Credit Union, until her retirement in 1985. As a child and teenager, Lucille loved music. She studied voice and played the accordion, piano and saxophone. Lucille and Glen Accola were married in 1946 and together they shared a lifelong love of music. She enjoyed time spent with family and friends during the many summer fishing trips to Minnesota and winters in Miami. She was an avid Iowa State fan and attended many ISU football and basketball games.
