At the age of 5, her family moved to Loyal, and then at the age of 8, they moved to Neenah. She was raised and received her education in Neenah, where she graduated from high school. After graduation, Lucille worked as a telephone operator in Neenah for a few years. She married Hillus K. Kadolph in Neenah on Feb. 24, 1941. They moved to Loyal and farmed on his family farm.

Her husband, Hillus, died on June 7, 2003. Lucille moved to Marshfield in 2004 and resided there until her death. She was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church and its TLCW, and a member of the Clark County Homemakers. In her spare time, Lucille loved gardening, sewing, quilting and polka dancing.
