I want to convey my sympathy to the Malley family as well as mention that Lucy was instrumental in my Mother’s life during her stay at Mother of Mercy Nursing Home. Lucy would encourage my Mom to go to activities and would help her with bingo etc. My Mom is 98 years old and very much “with it” but she had been struggling for a few months when her home was sold and the finality of the Nursing Home being her home. Lucy was so “bubbly” and that rubbed off on my Mom. My Mom now is a ‘”new Mom”, thanks to Lucy. I just wanted to share this with your family so you would know that Lucy was busy being an angel on earth until the very end. God bless all of you as you go through the grieving process.
