Gene and Don and family I am so sorry to hear about Lucia. I have known her over 30 years and the world could not ask for a better person, she has always been someone I loved sitting down talking to. She has gone through so much, now may she be at rest. During this time surround yourself with the love of friends and family to help you through.
