She was united in holy matrimony to her devoted husband, William B. Carter.
In her early years, she worked in the garment industry at various major companies. She later worked at Mount Sinai Hospital as a Division Secretary until it closed and then continued her work at Cleveland Clinic Hospital as a unit secretary until her illness.
She gave her life to the Lord at an early age. She was a member of Union Grove Baptist Church under the leadership of E. L. Rogers, K. W. Rogers, and the current pastor, Rev. Jeremy Wanton. She joyfully served on the Deaconess Board.
Lucy enjoyed traveling, baking, sewing, and spending time with her family.
She entered into eternal rest on Saturday, December 1, 2024, at Cleveland Clinic, with her husband by her side.
She was preceded in death by three sisters: Ida Mae Jones, Della Mae Jones, and Minnie E. Jackson; and three brothers: Robert Jones Jr., Robert “Lovie John” Jones, and Horace Jones.
