Thank you Lucy for the few short years we lived in West Haven and I was able to call you my friend. I know you will be very missed by those who still call West Haven their home.

It was a pleasure knowing Lucy as a child at school and at Nettie's table on Sunday mornings. My condolences to Gill, her family, and friends.

We were at her (the Roy's) house everyday, having grown up with her kids. I remember walking in the door and the first thing she would say was, "are you hungry, want something to eat?" She was always baking. She will be missed dearly. Love and prayers to the family.
