What a character Lucy was! So feisty, so outspoken and so caring. I didn't see Lucy very often but we spoke on the phone - a lot! I think of her as a dear friend. We love you Lucy!

Dear John,
I will always keep the memory of a tough, sweet lady. It's a shame that her so-called "Golden years" weren't so golden after all. But, judging from the pictures, she had a full and happy life surrounded by a loving family.
She will be missed by many,
Claude and Richard

Unc, Chris, Mary, Chelsea. Olivia, Eddie and Billy. Things change. As kids, we were very close.
To Unc, Chris, and Mary.Where is Grandpa when we need him? Today, literally,he would have us laughing and crying at the same time. We would all need tissues, but that wouldn't be a problem, he had a million of them.
I love all of you.
If there is anything I can do; let me know.
Gil sends her love. She loves you guys too.
