If you think planning a wedding is stressful, try planning a funeral. Thankfully the funeral home has been very compassionate and professional.
Lucy's funeral will be held Saturday, April 21 at Washburn-McReavy Funeral Chapel, 2300 W. Old Shakopee Road, Bloomington, MN 55431. It is on the corner of Old Shakopee Road and Penn Avenue South.
Lucy absolutely did NOT like being the center of attention so per her wishes, there will not be a viewing. Her inurnment will be at a later date. Visitation is from 2:30 - 3:30. The service will be from 3:30 - 4:00 and we will be having light refreshments afterwards.
Lucy's obituary did not make the Sunday Star Tribune or Mesabi Daily News because I could not get to meet with a funeral director until after publication deadlines (1:00 pm Saturday for Sunday's paper). I'll let you know when the obituary is published. The funeral home web site will also publish her obituary. If anything changes, I will post another update on the blog.
Thank you for your patience.
Lucy was diagnosed with Stage IIIc ovarian cancer on April 8, 2010. Her battle ended April 13, 2012 but her journey continues through each of us. Thank you for your love and support!
