Obituary of Lucille Harvey
Lucille Harvey (Brignolo), a life-long resident of Vineland, died suddenly Monday the 6th of January at the age of 74.
Lucille was born on August 13, 1945 in Vineland, NJ to Joseph and Lena (Sarnicola) Brignolo. She attended Vineland High School, and graduated from Glassboro State College in 1967. Lucille married Kenneth A. Harvey Jr. of Newfield, NJ on December 23, 1967. They raised two children, Robert and Holli.
Lucille worked as a teacher in the Vineland school district for 26 years, having taught basic skills to students at Max Leuchter and at Rossi. She retired from this position in 2003.
Lucille shared her life with her husband Ken. Both were active in local and national classic car clubs, namely involving Ford Thunderbirds and Mazda Miatas, having held leadership positions at the local level. Her time with these car clubs led to many friendships locally and throughout the country with other automobile enthusiasts. In addition, she also shared her passion for dogs with Ken, having owned several German Shepherds over a 35-year period, as well as maintaining membership in the American Kennel Club. Such was her devotion to canines that after her retirement from teaching, Lucille volunteered her time as a board member of the South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter. In addition to enjoying classic cars and dogs, Lucille also very much enjoyed an outing to the Atlantic City casinos and vacationing in Key West, FL
