I met her as a child when Summer was my best friend at South Aiken Baptist. I've seen her a few times over the years and she was always the sweetest. I'm so sorry the family has to feel this. I lost my sister in April so I know how painful grief is. I wish you all the best and I just know she's in heaven bc she was definitely a Christian. May God be with you all. Kari Johnson

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Mrs. Lucas was the sweetest, nicest lady. I was always happy to see her and Mackenzie when they came into the Credit Union. She will be missed.
