Lucy Martin Barrows

She was born February 20, 1939 in Chicago, Illinois to Edward and Virginia Loevenhart. Lucy grew up in Highland Park, Illinois where she was graduated from Highland Park High School. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education from the University of Arizona at Tucson.

It was at the university where she met Thomas Michael Barrows. They were married in Tucson June 10, 1961. They settled in Arlington, where Lucy taught 5th grade at Key Elementary School for 35 years.

Lucy served her community as a volunteer for many charitable organizations. She was a founding member of the Junior League of Arlington, and she served as a Stephen Minister for her church. She enjoyed cross-stitching, crafts, and spending time in fellowship with her beloved Prayer Group.

Her true joy, however, was spending time with her many, dear friends and her family. She will be remembered best for her compassion, common sense, and laughter.

She is survived by her husband, Tom Barrows; daughter, Mary Rutherford Dailey; son, Thom Barrows; grandchildren, Ryan Scot Dailey and Laura-Jane Rutherford Dailey. She also is survived by her sister, Terry Ann Ellicott; and her son-in-law, Scot Dailey and daughter-in-law, Mindy Barrows.

A memorial service will be held at 4:00 in the afternoon on Monday, November 14th at Grace Lutheran Church, 210 West Park Row Drive, Arlington, Texas 76010.
