Lucy loved spending her winters in their home in Arizona, where she could enjoy the golf courses and their many friends.
She loved spending her time on the golf courses here in Thunder Bay and always making little trips stateside to Minnesota for golf, football games and shopping excursions. Lucy had a special love for All animals, which made her smile, especially her Patrick Puppy.
