THE LUCINE SIE MEMORIAL FUND

Donation protected
Thank you to all that are reading this fundraiser excerpt. I am a close friend of Sam and the family. As his friend I wanted to take over this page, as i have seen how hard it has been for him and his family to manage dealing with such a tragic loss of such a great person. I asked Sam to speak from the heart and share this story of how his mom passed away, and as hard as it may be I'm proud of him for being strong enough to do so. This is a real life example of why we should spend more time laughing, loving, and living, because you just never know when that time will come. Life sometimes ends all too soon, without much explanation as to why. As I know we are all consumed in our own lives and have our own issues, a helping hand to others can go a long way and is always good for the soul. The funds from this page will be utilized for the burial, funeral arrangements, and medical expenses that have been gained from this incident. This family could really use our help. The arrangements have already been pushed back to a way later date than normal, in order to collect the money to bury Ms. Lucine Sie. The family asks for prayers if you may and any type of donation to help put Lucine to rest would be most appreciated. God Bless you all and please cherish every single moment you may have with your love ones.


Sincerely,
Jason Washington



Sam's story in his words:


          " My Mother Lucine Sie lost her life October 8, 2014 at 4am . Anyone that knows my mother knows that she is a woman that was not complicated at all. Everybody called her an "Angel", and she truly was that. Always smiling, laughing, a true compassionate soul. On October 7, in the a.m. , We were watching T.V. and having breakfast as normal, then she went to work as I was doing my homework. On Tuesdays she gets off at 12pm, but this day she got off at 1pm and when she got home, I was still there just finishing up my homework and getting ready to meet with my father to begin our day at work. It started raining so I waited and me and my mother started watching Tv together, Maury. We had some laughs and nice deep conversations which honestly, has never been done before. The deep conversations that is because me and my mom laugh together everyday. She was my best friend. I went to school and after that went to go work out , came back home about 10pm to find her and my father laying on the couch half asleep. So I told my father ," Daddy and mommy go to sleep" and my dad got up first to go upstairs and my mom said she'll get up in 30 min to go up. She was perfectly fine and she said to me" turn off all the lights when your done with your music", I said " ok mommy go to sleep". She said "Goodnight " and I said the same.
As soon as she goes upstairs, my dad comes downstairs and gets ice from the freezer. and then come downstairs again, the third time she comes downstairs he tells me " Your mom is sick" and I said " how is she sick, she was just fine". So I just storm upstairs to find her vomiting in bed, so I asked her what's wrong, she said " I must of eaten something bad" so I told her ok and just throw it all up. She threw up a total of three times, and the third time I told her " lets go to the hospital" and she said No she'll be fine. I said NO LETS  GO! and she yelled at me saying NO Sam, baby I'll be ok, go downstairs and go to sleep. I went to go buy her a Powerade because she looked dehydrated. She drank it and 5 minutes later she threw it up again. Minutes later my dad came downstairs, and said we are going to force her to go to the hospital , when he went back upstairs and all I heard was yelling LUCINE. I stormed upstairs to find my mom making a weird noise and not breathing, I tried to perform CPR on her and yelling at my dad to call 911 and go get neighbors to come help. He did so. She was coming in and out. When he came back my mother was already dead in my arms, but the ambulance came so we had faith. They tried everything, but she wasn't  breathing still. They finally took her to Southwest Memorial hospital , and 25 minutes later the doctor told us that she didn't make it. This was the worst day of my life, but I believe God needed another angel. Me and my family are putting a memorial together for my mother to lay this beautiful person to rest. So please if you can give, anything will help. Thank you !! "

Lucine Sie was a kind hearted and loving woman. She was simple and never complained about anything. Someone that loved life and enjoyed it. Everyone around her was touched by the way she never shook hands with anyone, she would always hug them as if they were one of her children. To everyone she was "Mommy." Lucine Sie has left behind a husband, a daughter, two sons, and five grandchildren that will always miss her. In the African community she was called a "princess". There isn't one person that has ever had anything negative to say about Lucine. Her smile alone could brighten up the room. Her voice was soft, and she respected every person young and old. Please pray for her and keep her family and friends in your prayers also. And out of the kindness of your heart, any donation will be greatly appreciated no matter how much the dollar amount. Thank you and God bless.
