Luvsbway Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 I know Lucy was not a big funeral attender, but in the past month I've seen 2 photos where she was attending a funeral. The first is Harry Einstein, who died during Lucy and Desi's Friar's Club roast. The second is Freddie Prince's funeral. The first one made sense but I didn't know she really knew Freddie. As for other funerals I know she was at Dino Jr's memorial service. And speaking of him I just came across her saying she was his godmother. I don't think I knew that. Anyway back to funerals. What other ones do we know of her attending other than Desi's? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeySanJoaquin Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Re Prinze's funeral: maybe she went because she knew Jack Albertson?? I know it's a stretch but all I could come up with! Regarding the top one, I think about that unexpected death every time I go into our local rare record shop, as high up on the shelf behind the counter they have a $$$ vinyl LP of the show from that night. Would love to add it to my collection but that's not feasible at the moment...damn it. [Was Einstein's funeral here in the desert?? Sure looks like it by the shot of all the palm trees and that semi-familiar building.... or I've just been here in the heat too long! ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryCarter Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Lucy was very vocal about her love of Chico and the Man and she and Freddie Prinze appeared together on Sammy & Company, but I don't know if they had a friendship beyond that. I know Lucy went to the funerals of long time employees/friends like Hazel Pierce and Howard McClay. Lucy and Desi were Dino Martin's godparents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow I had never heard that before but you're the expert. Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickee Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 The top shot with Desi and George Murphy appears to be at Harry E's funeral in Whittier at Home of Peace, where he is interred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
