When my family was just starting, Lucille was our backdoor neighbor and she was always ready with a smile and a friendly word. I will always be able to see her on the ground playing with my small children. Thinking of you in your time of loss.

I am very saddened to read of the passing of Lucy. I enjoyed working with her at the store for all those years. In fact in her own way she taught me many lessons when I was younger. She was a great lady!!



My thoughts and prayers are with her family.
