  2. My sympathy to Lucy’s family and especially to June and Dick, on her passing. Also late condolences on the loss of Ray. They were both lovely people to know. Judith Merkel

  3. Amy, Amanda, Bill, Judy, Sue and your families; Though I won’t be with you in person to say final goodbyes to Lucy, I willbe there in spirit. I will rsmember her always as a kind loving sister. Aunt Arlene

  4. Amy, Amanda & family,
    What a loss that we are all experiencing. Lucy was a wonderful person. My fondest childhood memories are playing at your house and your mom taking “us kids” to vacation Bible school at the little white church. I remember her walking me back up the hill to my house because I wasn’t quite ready for my “first” sleepover. She will forever hold a special place in my heart.

  5. Oh my gosh, I really got to know Aunt Lucy when Uncle Ray was ill with Alzheimer’s and so was my Mom. We had just admitted her and Lucy really helped me to understand what we were dealing with. It was such a tough time and I dreaded (at times when Mom was really angry)) going over to visit. But I soon came to look forward to talking with Lucy and visiting with Ray and then moving on to Mom. She made a truly difficult situation slowly reach normalcy again. Amanda, Amy, Sue, Judy, JJ, Wes, Bill, (and anyone I’ve missed), our love and prayers are with you and will be in the coming year. Sandy and Joe Holmes
