I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Heaven has gained an angel in her. I never met her, but I learned all about her from Steve over the years. She sounds like she was a wonderful, compassionate soul. I was fortunate to have sampled her cooking over the years, courtesy of Steve; such things as soups, meatballs, and pasta. So sorry for your loss and sending thoughts and prayers to everyone. LoisB

Steve and Family, I am sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I understand what you are going through as I have lost my parents too. I will be unable to attend the viewing as I am on vacation. We need to get together once I return.

Lucy was such a gentle, caring mother and grandmother. I know how much she will be missed by her wonderful family. It's a grand thing that Ruby came along to keep Lucy's smile going.
