Good Samarian
by Frank Smith
Probably one of the best known and most loved
employees of the Milstead Plant is Mrs. Nora Lucas who
discovers all illnesses and ministers to all needs. She enjoys
sending flowers to grown-ups, ice cream and cookies to the
youngsters.
For the past five years she has been happy in her
role of mysterious good Samaritan for she never identifies herself
with her gifts and kindnesses. Your snooping reporter only recently
learned her secret.
To show their love for her, her Milstead friends
filled her room with flowers and gifts that would make a sick person
happy when she was ill several months ago.
A former school teacher, Mrs. Lucas is now
employed in the Spooler Room and Band Machine Operator and Hank
Clock Reader.
She is an active member of the Methodist Church,
serving as chairman of the flower and Golden Cross committees, as a
member of the Board of Stewards.
She is a past chaplain for the Rockdale County
VFW Auxiliary and past president of the Milstead P.T.A.
Her husband, Gus Lucas, is Deputy Sheriff
of Rockdale County and chief cook for the Milstead Overseers Club
and the 25-year club.
They have three children, Patricia, Mrs. T. B.
Stovall and Clifford, who is employed in the Milstead Machine
Shop. |
