Services last Friday for Lucy Bicknell
Mrs. Lucy Bicknell residing at Walbridge Wing the past year, passed away at 12:05 p.m. Tuesday, May 10th. Services for the 88-year-old woman were held from the United Methodist Church at two o'clock Friday afternoon, with the Rev. Elmo Cook officiating.
Laurel Covington accompanied Bessie Allen who sang in The Garden and Ivory Palace. Acting as pallbearers were Bob Ridings, Joe Peaslee, Sam Lockhart, Don Carroll, Ben Lugenbeel and Wilbur Richardson. W. C. Zobel Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements with interment in Highland Cemetery.
Louise "Lucy A." Bicknell was born April 20, 1889 in Norwood Minnesota to Gerhard T. and Amanda Bergman. As a young girl she moved to Portland, Oregon where she lived until her marriage to David E. Bicknell.
They then moved to Montana and in 1914 came to Colorado and homesteaded in the Maybell area and ranched in the Grand Valley area. They moved to Meeker in 1929 where Lucy became active in the community, working in the schools as a substitute teacher and teaching Sunday School in the Methodist Church. She was a member of the V.F.W. Auxiliary serving this organization as treasurer for several years.
In 1944, she moved to Salt Lake City, Utah where she worked in St. Mark's Hospital until her retirement in 1954. The rest of her years were spent living between Mesa, Arizona and Meeker, where she could be near her family.
Her interests were reading, sewing and playing the piano, and she enjoyed playing in a local country band. She loved to travel and also spent many hours entertaining her grandchildren.
She is survived by five sons: David E. of Mesa, Ariz.; Kenneth of Meeker; Weldon of Riverside Calif.; Donald of Calimesa, Calif.; and Clifford of Salt Lake City; one daughter, Alice Perrine of Salt Lake City; a sister Helen Locaher of Minneapolis, Minn.; a brother, Elmer Bergman of Tanby, Minn.; 28 grandchildren, over 40 great-grandchildren, many other relatives and friends.
She was preceded in death by two sons - Lloyd and Roy, Two daughters - Selma Olsen and Lois Bicknell, and one stepdaughter, Thelma Paulk.
