Cousin Bobbie, and Eddie
I can’t even begin to express my sorry on the passing of you’re mother. Aunt Lucy, was just the best Aunt ever. She knew the value of family and it showed in everything she did. I’m sure all her brothers and sisters held a huge welcoming party for her.
Aunt Lucy, will be greatly missed but never forgotten.
So sorry for your loss. Eddie and Lucy have been friends with my parents, Emma and Jim since they lived on James Street. I consider them and their children my family. I will always remember Lucy’s laugh and kindness and the love that Ed and Lucy have for each other. They were so proud of their sons and grandchildren ! You will be missed Lucy. Love you 😘
Uncle Eddie and family,
Sending you my deepest sympathies. I know she will be so missed. May your memories help you in this difficult time.
Rest peacefully Aunt Lucy!
Bobby, so sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family.
