Lucy’s life was filled with love of family and friends. So many cherished memories were made around her kitchen table sharing Lucy’s delicious cooking, especially her signature spaghetti and meatballs. She was a faithful recorder of those memories in her many photo albums. Countless hours spent with her grandchildren have left them a priceless gift. Her faithful support to Jack during their marriage was an inspiration to all. Lucy’s selfless caring years of raising 5 daughters and her 33 dedicated years at Famous-Barr gave her children a lasting lesson in the value of hard work and service to others. Her life has touched so many, she will be dearly missed.
