Lucille,
You were not only my babysitter since I was born, but an amazing role model that I will forever look up to! You were always my number one supporter growing up and you were such a beautiful woman inside and out! I will forever cherish all of our memories together from having lunches together each week to going to the beauty parlor and spending time by the water. You were always so positive and kind to everyone around you and I will continue to spread that to everyone around me! I will forever hold you close to my heart. I love you so much!
Love,
Brianna Hamlett

Nana Cele,
You were always there to greet us with a smile and a kind word. You loved watching your great grandbabies and their cousins run and play together. Your love and kindness will live on with them. Thank you for being generous with your love, time, and conversation. Our condolences to the entire Duffy family. May you keep Nana close in your hearts always and may the love you find in her memories give you all peace during this time.
With Love,
Ashley, Ryan, and Eamon Molloy
