The day Lucy died, it crushed them. They blamed themselves. Not a single day went by where they didn't think about her, talk about her, and miss her terribly. Now, they are together in Heavenly bliss, waiting for us to come home.
 

Her Story

August 27, 2012

Lucy was born November 23, 1979 to Richard D. and Lucille C. Friend, in Torrington, CT. She is the younger sister of Kathleen, Matthew and Edward, and the older sister of Becky.

She was a smart young girl all through her school days, making the honor roll from grade school until she graduated high school (WAMOGO) in 1998. It wasn't until she reached high school however, that she was no longer the shy little girl she used to be. Some of the friends she made would later become her "adopted siblings".

In her adult life, she worked so hard to make a life for herself and her young son, Reed. She was never out of a job and sacrificed so much for her child, just like our parents did with us. Reed was her pride and joy, her baby boy. She also had a baby girl, named Jillian, whom she put up for adoption. It broke her heart, but she knew it was for the best.

In her thirty-one short years on this earth, Lucy had been through so much, but eventually made it through. She exhibited such amazing strength and kindness. She would often go above and beyond to help out another, even in times when she needed help herself. When anybody needed to talk, or for just someone to listen, she was there. Lucy was a mother, daughter, sister, and friend. She was so much more than anyone could ever dream to be. Her spirit was unbreakable and her love was nothing but genuine.

She leaves behind everyone in life who loved her so very much. Her parents: Richard & Lucille. Her siblings: Kathy, Matt and his girlfriend Dawn Luzefski, Edward & Becky. Her beloved son, Reed. Her nieces and nephews: Skylar Friend, Raina Friend, Marcus Dalhover, Christopher Dalhover & Rhys Snyder. She also left behind her grand nephew, Conner, whom she never had the pleasure of meeting along with countless friends and co-workers.
