Lydia was an amazing person, a friend of everybody, always out going, laughing, had an opinion she was willing to share. Lydia was an extremely talented artist. I remember her coming out of art class with a new painting in hand willing to show it off only if asked. She always had excitement in her voice too.

Lydia was driving alone on southbound Temple Avenue near Lewis Road when she apparently lost control as the road curved. Her car slid sideways into a driveway, hit a tree, ricocheted into a block wall, then hit another tree. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Lydia, you will forever be remembered through your art and your friendliness towards everyone.
