I will always remember how much Lucrata & I loved tomatoes. I will miss her terribly. God bless you all during this difficult time.
Oh how I loved me some Lucrata. She is the one that taught me how to make lasagna when I was was a young mother. I have watched Adrienne & Chris grow up and are very fine people. Miss Lucrata & Sally made that happen. I love you guys and share in your sorrow. The Bible says to rejoice in the Lord for he has lifted up Lucrata into his kingdom!!! I will miss you and love you forever. Until we meet again.
