Lucinda General was born in Hartford Connecticut. She is one of two children. She is the oldest with one brother, David, who is four-and-a-half years younger. Lucinda has lived in Arizona for 21 years, having moved here in 1996. Prior to living in Arizona, Lucinda has resided in Connecticut and Texas. She has travelled to Spain, Sweden, Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Belize, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Venezuela, Argentina, Canada, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao and about eight Caribbean islands. In addition to English, Lucinda is conversational in Spanish with "genuine lousy grammar."
As a teenager, Lucinda dreamed of being a lawyer. She has the owner of a bookkeeping and small business management company since 1999.
Lucinda married Wayne in April, 2009. She has two adult children both living in Illinois, Leslie, her oldest child, and Brian, who has two children, Sophia (8) and Quentin (3).
The best vacation Lucinda can remember was a travel experience driving from Costa Rica to Connecticut to Arizona from May to September 1996 in a 1972 Diesel Land Rover. She hopes the great memories of that trip will be surpassed by a planned vacation in Italy in October of this year.
Remembering her most rewarding volunteer experience, Lucinda recalls two trips to Jinotepe, Nicaragua on grant trips delivering medical supplies. She toured the hospital where the supplies went, watched a baby being delivered, saw their "basic, basic" hospital infrastructure and supplies and saw how much they do with so little. She also saw a village built by the same partner Club, seeing firsthand the effects of clean water on overall quality of life.
