Lucy was a part of my teenage years when she lived in Chicago. I hung with Joe Hibbs who lived upstairs. She was always kind and gave me haircuts in the basement. I will always remember walking up the stairs to an open door to their apartment smelling food and hearing a loving families chatter-to many memories to mention..
Rest in peace Lucy-
