Lula was born on November 10, 1942, in Morehead City, North Carolina, to the late Herbert Sterling Mason and Zelma Mason. She was actively involved in her church, Stacy Free Will Baptist. Her involvement in the ladies’ auxiliary included various activities and programs to support the church and its members. She had a passion for singing and contributed her musical talents to the church's worship services in the choir. Lula was a faithful Sunday school teacher, who took an active role in nurturing the spiritual growth of children and imparting religious education to them. Lula's dedication reflected her unwavering commitment to her faith and community.

Lula’s family considered her to be the best mother a child could hope for. That special honor reflects her dedication to her children's well-being and her nurturing spirit which continued over the years as she helped to raise her grandchildren. Lula’s ongoing involvement in the lives of her family and her willingness to provide support and guidance spanned across the generations. From her special home-cooked meals to her daily encouragement, whatever she did, she made sure it was filled with love.  Known as wife, mother, nana and nannie, she will be missed beyond measure by her family whom she treasured dearly.
