I remember good times, laughter always. She will be greatly missed. Just can't believe she is gone. Blessings upon each of you.
To the family of our loving friend, Lucy, no words can express the heartfelt sympathy we feel for your loss. Lucy meant so much to us. She was a beacon of light and love everywhere and everytime we crossed paths. I met her several years ago when she became the first voice and face you'd encounter at London Elementary. To know her, was to love her. She meticulously made the best cakes with her special ingredients and lots of love. Only time and prayer will help heal your hurting hearts. Just hold on to God's promise for strength during this very difficult time, and know that our loss is Heaven's gain. He will give you peace. He will be our Footprints 👣 n the sand!

What a beautiful lady inwardly and outwardly. Lucy greeted all in love and genuine compassion leaving a everlasting impression; I meet her through her precious daughter who went to school with my precious daughter in Stokes County, from then on I felt blessed to call her 'A Friend'.
