Lucy Claire (Bostick) Bellows was born July 31, 1942 to James Day and Tressie Barbara (Stocks) Bostick in Pine Bluff, Arkansas and departed this life on January 31, 2021 to be with our Lord and Savior.
She is preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her siblings, Eleanor Kay (Bostick) O’Neal (Larry) of Nacogdoches, TX and James Day Bostick, Jr. of Marshall, TX; children Tracy Lynn Langford (Bellows) Markovich (Tim) of League City, TX and David Monroe Bellows, Jr. of Sammamish, WA; step-children Sharon Ann (Bellows) Bullock (Kevin) of Colebrook, NH; and Carl Wayne Bellows (Denise) of Berlin, NH; grandchildren Duston Michael Davis of Dallas, TX; Quinton Trey Davis of League City, TX; Thomas Lee Markovich (Marielle) of Cambridge, MA; Kaleena Rae Markovich of League City, TX; Christa Lambert (James) of Colebrook, NH; Erica Owen (Craig) of East Burke, VT; Aaron Bellows (Libbey) of Manchester, NH; nephew and former neighbor, Bobby Joe Marshall of Nacogdoches, TX; and former spouses and beloved friends, Dale Elliott Langford of Somerville, TX; and David Monroe Bellows, Sr. of Garland, Texas; as well as numerous great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, extended families, and friends.
Lucy was a lady of many interests. Initially she pursued an interest in the medical field and later a degree in electronic technology with a career highlight of spending time in her employer’s Australian facility. Lucy also pursued her passion as a talented artist, traveling and displaying her works in western art. Being commissioned to do a large painting for her church, Bethel Lutheran in Dallas, TX, was a source of great pride for her as the painting was well received and displayed prominently for several decades. Lucy’s volunteer efforts included administrative and other activities for her church in Dallas, Girl Scout Leader, and talking with those in need through the Suicide Prevention hotline. She shared many interests with her family and friends including playing bingo, art, searching for antiques, square dancing, hunting, fishing, and travel. Lucy was a voracious reader drawn especially to historical fiction. She had a very sharp mind and enjoyed lively debate and often took a contrarian position for fun and for the challenge of it. Later in life, Lucy discovered crossword puzzles and worked tirelessly on them till she had mastered them. Lucy was a former longtime resident of Marshall, Dallas and Nacogdoches and most
recently a resident of Focused Care at Webster in Webster, TX. Her family would like to especially thank the staff and medical team of Focused Care at Webster and Hospice Plus for their wonderful care and support of Lucy in her later years.
A private celebration of life was held on February 6, 2021 for family and friends virtually to protect the health of all during the current worldwide pandemic.
