Lucille Murdock

Sept. 15, 1914 - Feb. 26, 2010
SOUTH BEND - The gentle soul of Lucille (Kinerk) Murdock returned to God on Friday, February 26, 2010. She was born to Frank and Molly (Joyce) Kinerk on September 15, 1914. She attended St. Joseph School, Central High School and graduated from the South Bend College of Commerce. In 1942 she married Howard D. Murdock of Kingston, New York. They moved to LaPorte where she lived for 50 years. She was active in her parish, MQ Bridge Club, the American Cancer Society, the LaPorte Hospital Auxiliary and many other groups. Her numerous charitable acts were quiet. Her husband died in 1976. She was also preceded in death by her brother, Louis (Juno), and her two sisters, Florence and Margaret. She returned to South Bend to live with her daughter, Joyce, who survives. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Wednesday at St. Joseph Catholic Church in South Bend at 10:30 AM. Visitation will be in the church one hour prior. Burial will follow at Pine Lake Cemetery in LaPorte, IN. May she now rest in peace with her family who she loved and missed so much and so long. In lieu of flowers, please send memorial donations to Pet Refuge. To send condolences, please visit www.mcgannhay.com.
