Every neighborhood needs a Grandma. Our little tree-lined block was blessed to have Lucy pinching babies cheeks, passing out lollipops to all the children, and even doggie biscuits to the dogs. I feel so blessed to have known her. Lucy will be missed, but never forgotten. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

Auntie Lucy. What fond loving memories I have of you. You will never know how much I loved spending time with you. How special you were to me and so many others. Your humor, kindness and generous loving spirit will never be forgotten. Your niece, Joanie

We all loved Mrs. Burke.  She was a wonderful mom and so nice to us neighborhood kids.  One time we ran to her house when our mom was out because our cellar door was open and we were scared.  She never made fun of us or called us silly.  She was great.  Deepest sympathy to her family from the Davies kids

"I love Lucy" - along with every one else who was lucky enough to know you. Always with a smile and a joke, you made our time at work better for everyone. I'm sure you are laughing with the angels. Such wonderful memories! Love you! Roberta Williams
