On Wednesday July 1, 2020 our dear mother, Lucy Ann Law, (Suet) (Mrs. Lucy), quietly exchanged time for eternity at SOVAH Medical Center Danville Va.
Lucy was born December 30, 1946 in Pittsylvania County to the late Jessie Lee Day and Ella Walton Day.
She was educated in the Pittsylvania County School System and was a proud graduate of Southside Class of 1965. Lucy was formerly married to Ferman Lee Wayne (Lint) James. To that union three children were born, Ella, Ferman and Gregory. She later wedded Frankie Lee Law (Jr.), who predeceased her.
Mrs. Lucy was employed at Tultex for over twenty years and later retired from Walmart in Danville, Virginia as a door greeter for eleven years. She accepted Christ at an early age and became a member of Tarpley’s Chapel Baptist Church. Lucy later joined New Design Baptist Church where she remained faithful- working in the kitchen and visiting the sick and shut-in until her death.
Lucy was predeceased by three brothers, Thomas, Jimmy and William (Tim) Day; and two sisters, Rebecca Walton and Alease Swanson.
