WEST ROCKPORT — Lucille Dean Hall, 92, of West Rockport, died June 20, 2016, at her home. Born in Rockport on March 21, 1924, she was the daughter of Kenneth W. and Ardelle (Robbins) Dean.

She was a graduate of Rockport High School, Class of 1942, and was a lifelong resident of the town. She married the love of her life, Harold A. Hall, on June 18, 1945, at the Chestnut Street Baptist Church in Camden. While raising her children and until her retirement, Lucille (or Lucy) was employed at the Sail Loft Restaurant in Rockport, where she made many good friends.

Lucille loved her home and her beautiful flower gardens, which she enjoyed maintaining into her late 80s. Reading, knitting and crocheting were favorite pastimes. Musical and athletic in high school, in middle age she taught herself to play guitar, and she and a group of friends took up cross-country skiing at that time as well. While she was still able, she loved to walk on Mt. Pleasant Road near her home. Lucille was very fond of her latest cat, Whiskers McGregor, who was a good companion.

She was always a loving and caring wife, mother, and grandmother, with a big heart and a sunny smile for all, even in difficult times. She was an active member of the Rockport Methodist Church for many years.
