The MacKay family welcomed three children Michael, Lisa and Matthew. Lu was a patient, kind mother and was proud of all three of her children. Cam and Lu's favorite place to spend time with family and where they made many happy memories was their second home in Island park, where they eventually built a cabin in Elk Creek Estates. Cam and Lu had a rare kind of love that lasted beyond their time together on Earth. It gives the family great peace knowing they have each other again. Lucille was an active member of the LDS Church.
