I feel very blessed to have known Lucy and her wonderful family. It was a great pleasure to have taken care of her. I very much enjoyed listening her talk about her family, most recently reminicising about her husband and what a good man he was, and how proud she was of her children and grandchildren. I will miss her greatly. My thoughts and prayers go out to all her family I never met, and to Stephanie and her family who I got to know well. God bless you all. with love Sandy Graham,RN- Southside Regional Home Health
