Lucy was a member of St. Catherine's Catholic Church in Fairview. Her pastimes included embroidery, keeping scrapbooks of her children and grandchildren, gardening, and she was a 4-H member. She was a self-taught seamstress willing to tackle anything from draperies to prom dresses. She enjoyed baking and canning, boating, fixing puzzles and playing cards.

Lucy walked to Dore for elementary school and rode the Galloping Goose, a term applied to the local train, to Fairview MT during high school. In high school she shared an apartment with four close friends and worked at the local diner. Lucy had a love for all four seasons, learned the value of hard work as a child and carried it throughout her life. Her world revolved around her family and helping Ben on the farm.
