They bought a lake house in Michigan (Chalet on the Lake) and loved spending time there. While living in West Chicago, Lucy worked for West Chicago High School, The Cenacle in Warrenville, and for the DuPage County Clerk's Office. Lucy's hobbies included reading, ceramics, playing bingo, and bowling. Lucy loved spending time with family and everyone loved her peanut butter cup bars and mashed potatoes that she would bring to parties.
