She was born November 10, 1917, to John and Lois (Lamberton) Blair. She grew up at the Blair Ranch near Tilford, SD. Lucile was baptized at the First Presbyterian Church in Sturgis. She graduated from Sturgis High School in 1937 and the Spearfish Normal Teaching College in 1939. She then went on to teach school in Meade County Country School for 2 years. She was married to Thomas "Pete" Jorensen on December 19, 1942. They made their home with their family in rural Tilford until 1981 when they moved to Sturgis. She later lived with her mother, Lois Blair, and many local residents remember seeing the 2 little gray haired ladies walking around town. Later, she lived at the Key City Assisted Living home and at the time of her death, she was living at Sturgis Regional Senior Care. Lucile spent many hours helping in the kitchen at the First Presbyterian Church with funeral lunches, Election Day Dinners, and really enjoyed mixing eggs and later serving coffee at the breakfast for the Motorcycle Rally. She also thoroughly enjoyed the numerous hours spent with the Sturgis Senior Citizens Center. She loved playing in the "Hillbilly Band" and singing with the chorus. Many of the hours of her days were spent crocheting. Whether it be baby blankets, slippers, or Christmas ornaments, she loved working with her hands.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to all of the caregivers that have been a part of Grandma's life.
