Lucille was born on 28 November 1956 in Boksburg, Gauteng, South Africa.  I now reside in Park Rynie, KwaZulu-Natal.  love writing poetry and transforming it into music.

The latest that I'm experimenting with are acrostic poems.

I also love history and am in the process of tracing my family genealogy, which has been exceptionally interesting.

The surmanes that link to my maiden name of  van Onselen,  are Maguire, Huggett, Phyffer, Rowe, South, Oosthuizen, Paauw to name a few.
