Remembering Lucille Bell
They say that behind every great man is a great woman and that could not be more true with Mrs. Lucille Bell. Lucille was the wife of Hall of Fame coach Paul Bell with whom she shared 69 loving years of marriage. Lucille was a long-time schoolteacher who went everywhere her husband did and fortunately for me, he came to Eufaula to coach. Mrs. Bell was my teacher and many years afterward she still cared deeply about all her students. When I would come to visit with Coach about football and his former players, I always brought her cookies that I think at times she hid from Coach.
