I am sending my deepest sympathy on the loss of Lucy. I worked with her in the cafeteria from 1993 until she retired. I called her Lucy Swinger at the Stinkin Lincoln! She would always remind me that she and my son had the same birthday. I will never forget what a special lady she was.
One of tbe toughest things that you will face. My condolences. I will visit the Dennison when I am back in town.
I worked in the school where she was and she was alway a wonderful lady.Sorry for your loss .
