Lucelia Angelina Miller passed away on Monday, January 18, 2010 to meet her Lord and Saviour. She was born August 15, 1926 in Newfield, New York, the daughter of Amandus and Ruby (Hovey) Teeter. She graduated from high school and became a bookkeeper. During World War II she worked for Ithaca Gun Company. During her younger years, she played softball, was on a bowling team and loved to tap dance.
When Lucelia was 37 years old, she was diagnosed with Addison's Disease. Joanne Longsdorff, who had led Lon and Tina to Christ through after school Bible Clubs, led Lucelia to Christ as well. Lu has taught children about Jesus since that day. She was a teacher and taught 2nd grade children at First Baptist Church of Central Florida until her late 70's and was a member of the Intercessory Prayer Group. She leaves a Legacy of prayer and service - no matter how old or physically infirmed you are, you can still serve Christ. God was still using her at the age of 83!
She leaves to cherish her memory, son Lon (Debbie) Santora of Orlando; daughter Tina Dean of Greenville, SC; sister Dora Johnoff of Atlanta, GA; grandchildren, Christopher (Ai) Santora of Orlando, Katherine Santora of Jacksonville, Joshua Santora of Orlando, Michelle Santora of Jacksonville, Lauren and Alena Dean both of Greenville, SC.

"Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father
There is no shadow of turning with thee.
Thou changest not thy compassions they fail not.
As thou hast been, thou forever will be.
Great is thy faithfulness
Great is thy faithfulness
Morning by Morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed thy hand as provided
Great is thy faithfulness
Lord unto Me."
