Lucy Preso June 9, 1937 – January 19, 2019

A longtime resident of Deming passed away January 19, 2019 at Willow Manor Assisted Living in Deming.

Born to Umberto Preso and Santina Pontesilli on June 9, 1937.  Lucy was the youngest of 6 children.  When her oldest sister, Mary Tharp, married and left home Lucy went to live with and be raised by Mary and her husband, Doug.

Lucy graduated from Deming schools in 1955.  She attended Western University in Silver City for her teaching degree.   She then moved to California and began her teaching career.  Upon her retirement from California schools she returned to Deming and took a 3rd grade teaching position at Smith School.

Lucy was an avid Bridge player as well as consumed with books.   She always incorporated her love for reading in her teaching and encouraged her students to read as much and often as possible.  

Lucy is survived by a brother Joe Preso of Oregon, and her niece, Connie Tharp and family, of California.  In lieu of flowers or gifts please send donations to Deming Humane Society in honor of Lucy’s love for animals. 

Thank you from the bottom of our heart goes to the Caregivers and Staff at Willow Manor Assisted Living for the love and support they gave Lucy during her time there. 

A graveside service will be held Friday, January 25, 2019 at 2 o’clock at Mountain View Cemetery. Deacon Dan Peña will officiate.  Cremation has been entrusted to Baca’s Mimbres Crematory.

Entrusted to the care of Baca’s Funeral Chapels.
