Lucille Mitchell Golden
OBITUARY
Lucille Mitchell Golden, born August 8, 1938, in Scranton, passed away peacefully and surrounded by her children on January 12, 2026.
She was the daughter of Kenneth and Lucille Wynn-Mitchell. Lucille was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Frank Golden; her parents; her brother-in-law, Gene Martin; her son-in-law, Roger Edwards; and many cherished family members and friends.
She is survived by her sister, Anna Mae Martin; three children, Patrick Golden of Spring Brook Township, Maureen Golden-Edwards of Jefferson Township, and Mary Golden Martini and husband Joseph of Madison Township; six grandchildren, Roger Edwards and wife Camille, Edward Isbitski, Christopher Isbitski and wife Colleen, Kathleen Isbitski, Colleen Cook, and Eileen Rusek. She is also survived by her nephew, Kenneth Martin and wife Susan and their children, Kenneth Jr. and Patrick; her niece, Michele Martin Pagano and husband Brian and their children, Maya and Bryce; two great-grandchildren, Liam Isbitski and Noah Edwards; and numerous other family members and friends whom Lucille loved dearly.
Lucille devoted 32 years of her professional life to Avon Products, where she served as a District Sales Manager. Her leadership, drive, and natural charm earned her numerous awards and recognitions and opened doors to travel around the world. She journeyed both for work and for pleasure with her family to Ireland, New York City, Spain, Costa Rica, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and beyond, collecting beautiful jewelry and treasures from around the world. She also spent many joyful years on the family boat, the Golden Get-A-Way, enjoying time at Lake Wallenpaupack and Gananoque, Canada.
For the past seven years, Lucille was a resident of St Mary’s Villa, where her presence was deeply felt and her spirit warmly admired. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the staff, administration, Dr. Valenti, and Amber Scholtes, for their exceptional kindness, compassion, and devoted care.
Lucille was known for her impeccable fashion sense, timeless elegance, and vibrant personality. She was the life of the party, always polished and confident, and never one to rush when it came to looking her very best. Wherever she went, she brought energy, laughter, and style.
Above all else, Lucilles heart and soul belonged to her husband, Frank Golden, with whom she shared more than 55 years of marriage. In faith, her family finds comfort in knowing that Frank was waiting for his Lucy, likely with one of his famous Manhattans in hand, and that she was welcomed home into eternal life, reunited with him at last in the presence of God.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at St. Eulalia’s Parish, at 11 AM Friday, by Rev. David Cramer, Pastor. Interment St. Catherine’s Cemetery, Moscow. Friends may call at the Church Friday morning from 9 to 11.
