Born in Cesoli, Italy, Lucia was the daughter of the late Giulio Iacobacci and Adelina (Ceroni) Iacobacci.

Lucia was a Master Seamstress having worked in boutique stores such as Joseph’s and the Marilyn Shop in downtown Reading. 

Lucia, along with her husband, built a mushroom farm business in Muhlenberg Township where she grew a garden of vegetables and flowers.  Lucia loved gardening and nurtured flowers, in particular roses, around her home.

There are 6 grandchildren:  Gina Del Vecchio, Anthony Del Vecchio, Julian Pellegrini, Joseph Pellegrini, Michael Stoltzfus and Nicole Stoltzfus.  Lucia has one great-grandchild, Stella Del Vecchio, daughter of Gina Del Vecchio.

She is also survived by her brother Antonino Iacobacci and his wife Filomena, Cesoli, Italy.  Lucia was predeceased by her sister, Jovina Del Gizzi and her husband, Luigi Del Gizzi.
