She worked as a secretary and bookkeeper at the former Vogel-Ritt Exterminators and for many years as a clerk in the family-owned Salomon Jewelers in Allentown. Lucy was an active member of the former Zion's Reformed UCC in Allentown. She loved to garden, enjoyed spending time outdoors and took great pride in baking homemade desserts.

Survivors: Daughter, Jennifer S. Kukula and her husband Stanley J. of Forest Hill, Maryland, with whom she resided for the past year; son, Erich E. "Rick" Salomon, II and his wife Linda of Allentown; sister, Louise P. Benda of Williamsport, Maryland; brother, Donald W.

Lucy was also preceded in death by 8 siblings - Bernice C. Huntley, Major Frank G. Parks U.S.M.C. Retired, Harry O. Parks Jr., Warren Parks, Stanley Parks, Robert Parks, William R. Parks and Edwin C. Parks.

Services will be private at the convenience of the family. Arrangements are entrusted to the K.V. Knopp Funeral Home, Allentown.

To the family
We will always remember Lucy. We shared good times at the pond and when our group of ladies met for birthdays at the Olive Garden. A nice person to know. Years have gone by but the memories remain.
