Lucy was a strong woman of faith and appreciated and reflected beauty in all that she did. She lived a full and happy life that was filled with joy and radiance. Lucy loved the outdoors and the peace it brought to her. She enjoyed doing the yard work such as mowing the yard no matter how hot it may be outside. She loved to sit outside in the mornings to watch the birds come to her birdhouses and listen to the wind blow through her wind chimes. Lucy cherished all her family and friends. Not only was she dedicated to her family, but she loved her job and all her coworkers.
