Cody Beatty, a Certified Nurses Aide at Morning Pointe Ridge, KY won for the Bluegrass Morning Pointe Recognizes The Best in the Field Visitors Mary “Lucille” Davison Lydia Jaime Lucille on her Wedding Day Kind and Loving Lucy, as her granddaughter calls her, came to live at Morning Pointe a little over a year ago from her home in Chattanooga, TN. Lucille was born in Dayton, TN on April 19th, 1924 and has had a life full of blessings. She was married to her husband Jesse Davison for 50 years! She was a secretary for Tennessee Valley Authority when Jesse asked her to type a letter for him. After looking at his handwriting she told him that he needed to learn how to spell. It was true love after that. After dating for about four years, they decided to get married. Together they have two sons, two grandsons and one granddaughter. Shortly before she had her children, she left TVA to become a homemaker and immersed herself in her church as a volunteer. Lucille attended Spring City High School in Spring City, TN and graduated with the honors of becoming Salutatorian. She says she was second only by 8/10ths of a point. She went on to get her degree from Abel’s School of Business in Dayton, TN. As time passed by, she enjoyed educating herself with good reading materials such as The Medical Encyclopedia, dedicating her motherly duties to her sons and volunteering for many organizations, with nursing homes being her favorite. She was also a member of the Flower Garden Club and loved traveling and sight-seeing. Miss GA, Jr. H.S.
