I remember spending time with her at her place across the street from my grandpa Smith's house. I also remember her bring me my food down at the restaurant. She was a sweet lady, I learned today that she helped my grandma many times. She would remember me as Lucy Hansen (Carl the 3's kid). I always had to go say hi when I was in town. Sorry for your loss.
