Lucie Caroline Seligman was born on January 6, 1901 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany to Josef and Betty Glauberg.  She married Kurt on January 15, 1922.  They had one daughter, Lottie (b. May 11, 1930, d. July 23, 1979, married to Ludwig Stern).   When Kurt was arrested and imprisoned at Buchenwald following Kristalnacht, November 9, 1939, Lucie managed to get him released a month later.  The family fled Germany to England, where they were forced to live apart, until they could sail to America together on the SS Cameronia; they arrived in New York on September 10, 1940.  They lived in Northeast Philadelphia, buying a row-home there where they lived until Kurt passed away in 1976.  Lucie loved to cook, do word puzzles and was known for many succinct German phrases such as "the house doesn't lose anything" when someone could not find something they lost.  Her family would tease her for reading cookbooks on Yom Kippur while fasting. She died on July 31,1992 at age 91.
