She is also survived by her nieces Sandra A McIntyre and Melissa Bailey, and nephew Robert L McIntyre, Jr.  all from Jersey City, NJ, and nephew Andre McIntyre of Newark, NJ and a host of grand nieces and nephews.

Lucy, also known to friends as “Dolly” or “Lu”, worked as a neonatal intensive care nurse before later becoming a substitute teacher at Surrattsville High School in Clinton, Maryland.  She was an active member of the National Council of Negro Women and enjoyed traveling to many different places.  Lucy was known to have an artistic nature and it showed in the paintings, drawings and the many pottery pieces that she created.

She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
