In this article, logarithmically complete monotonicity properties of some functions such as $\frac1{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[{\Gamma(x+\alpha+1)}]^{1/(x+\alpha)}}{[{\Gamma(x+1)}]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}{(x+1)^\alpha}$ and $\frac{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}{x^\alpha}$ defined in $(-1,\infty)$ or $(0,\infty)$ for given real number $\alpha\in\tr$ are obtained, some known results are recovered, extended and generalized. Moreover, some basic properties of the logarithmically completely monotonic functions are established.
