She worked in Scintilla as a draftsman until she met Harry E. Barnhart, the love of her life. They were married January 14, 1943. They settled in Sidney, NY where they raised their three children. Her love of books led her to work at the Sidney Public Library. And, when her husband changed jobs and they moved, she worked at the Framingham Public Library where she was bookkeeper and drove the bookmobile. Upon a subsequent move, Lucy worked in the library at the Penn State Milton H. Hershey Medical Center in Hershey, PA.
