A resident of Pasadena, Texas, Lucy had a rich and fulfilling life. She had a passion for traveling and enjoyed ocean cruises. She loved fishing, bird watching, and tending to her beautiful roses. She attended her great grandchildren’s softball and soccer games, and was an avid reader of all genre. Finally, Lucy looked forward to the weekly dinners out with the Thursday night crew.
