Lucille Helen Ferrante

Lucille Helen Ferrante, 104, passed away unexpectedly on Monday December 8, 2025 while at Grand Strand Medical Center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She was born on May 8, 1921 in New York.

Along with her parents, Lucy is finally reunited with her beloved husband, Peter E. Ferrante; and their son, Peter Bruce Ferrante.

A long-time resident of Sleepy Hollow in Falls Church, VA, Lucy was a hardworking woman who created a comfortable loving home for her family. She was kind and loving and always made time for the people she loved. She loved to visit with friends and family over a cup of tea and a plate of cookies. At 4’11” and less than 100 pounds, she was a force to be reckoned with. She attributed her long life to a reflection of the day over a glass of wine at 4:00 every day before dinner. She will be deeply missed.

Lucy is survived by her son, Randy R. Ferrante and his wife, Sandra A. Ferrante; grandson, James P. Ferrante; and great-granddaughter, Ashley T. Ferrante; as well as many supportive friends and neighbors.

A Celebration of Lucy’s life will be held on Saturday December 13, 2025 at 2:00PM at Burroughs Funeral Home, 3558 Old Kings Highway, Murrells Inlet, SC 29576. A Private Graveside Service will be held at National Memorial Cemetery at Quantico.
