Lucille Ruppert Watts' Obituary
Lucille Ruppert Watts, 95 years old, died April 4th, having lived in Clearwater Beach for the last 3 decades. The daughter of Carl and Anna Ruppert, born in Washington, DC, she lived the first 60 years of her life in the Maryland suburbs of DC. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 57 years, Cecil Hugh Watts in 2009. She was the loving mother of 2 children, Michael (Jennifer) Watts of Winchester, VA, and Suzanne Watts of Seminole, FL. Grandmother of Taylor, Carter, Meredith, and Nicole. She was predeceased by her 3 siblings: Carl A. Ruppert, Carolyn R Wicker, and Paul K. Ruppert. Lucy was a professional calligrapher, which led her into the art world where she enjoyed many friendships. Her art skills were as impressive as they were varied. She worked at the Washington Dollhouse and Toy Museum for nearly a decade. Following Cecil’s death, she volunteered for Hospice a number of years. She was quite proficient at
Rummikub; she was remarkably difficult to beat as recently as a year ago. We will miss her kindness and creativity. Services will be held at a later date and interment will be held in Potomac, MD.
Memorial Contributions can be made to the Council of Catholic Women at St. Brendan Catholic Church or Suncoast Hospice. A Funeral Mass is scheduled for Friday, June 6, 11:00AM at St. Brendan Catholic Church, 245 Dory Passage, Clearwater, FL 33767
