So many memories! Aunt Lucy was such an important part of my mom's world and therefore ours as well. She was the only connection to my mother's family here in Canada. She was always willing to fill us in about our German heritage and tell anecdotes about their family in Germany. While I know my mom and other family members are reunited with her now, we will miss her dearly.
