Lucian Wilson, 80, of Booneville, passed away Saturday, February 21, 2026, at Menifee Meadows Care Center in Frenchburg, Kentucky, the Booneville Sentinel and funeral-home notices report. Funeral arrangements were handled by Booneville Funeral Home.
Wilson was born May 28, 1945, and his obituary listings show his life span as May 28, 1945 - February 21, 2026. The Echovita and Booneville Funeral Home notices specify Menifee Meadows Care Center in Frenchburg as the place of death and list his age at 80.
Visitation and funeral services took place Saturday, February 28, 2026, at Booneville Funeral Home, 3450 KY-11, Booneville, KY 41314. Visitation was scheduled from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., followed by a funeral service at 1:00 p.m., according to the funeral-home event listing and the Echovita entry that mirrors those times.
Survivors named in the Echovita obituary include his children: Ray Charles Wilson of Lexington, Kentucky; Lucinda C. Smith of Michigan; and Clarissa R. Hind of Arizona. The notice also lists that he is survived by four brothers, five sisters, seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren, and it closes with the phrase “many other loving family members and friends.”
The family requested that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Jonathan Wilson Cemetery Fund, as stated on the Echovita page. That site also notes there was no photo or video of Lucian Wilson on the listing and offers options for messages of sympathy and memorial contributions through its platform.
The Booneville Sentinel posted an obituary for Wilson on March 4, 2026, at 11:37 a.m., citing his Feb. 21 death and noting that services were held Feb. 28 at Booneville Funeral Home. The Sentinel excerpt includes the fragment “Burial in” but does not specify a cemetery; the available sources do not provide a completed burial location.
Funeral arrangements were under the care of Booneville Funeral Home, which supplied the visitation and service times and the address on KY-11. Additional biographical details such as place of birth, spouse information, career or civic affiliations were not included in the public notices; the funeral home would have the family’s full obituary on file for those details.
