Donnie, Sadie, Deborah & I wish to send our prayers and sympathy to the entire Gynn & Soyars family in you time of grief. Miss Lucy was and will always be in our hearts. I can picture her in my mind with her hoe out by the oak trees keeping the weeds under control. Her flowers were always beautiful. She contributed to our neighborhood a lot of beauty and warmth. We cherish her friendship always.

Special condolences to William Soyars (pal)from L'Vonne.
