Lucy was a warm, caring and accepting person known for her sense of humour and feisty nature. Her spirit of hospitality led her to entertain family and friends with a special cuisine and provided a fun time for everyone. She had a passion for the outdoors and all creatures great and small were loved by Lucy. Through hard work she transformed a desolate backyard into a beautiful flower and vegetable garden and won numerous horticultural awards. Her Croatian heritage gave Lucy a strong work ethic for all her life.
The family would like to thank the staff at Finlandia Koivu nursing home for their exceptional care and kindness to Lucy.
