Lucy was born in LeClaire, Iowa, on November 27, 1922, to Elmer Irl Knapp and Edna (Concannon) Knapp. She grew up in LeClaire and Davenport, Iowa. She married her "First Love," Robert Boldt, in Davenport on August 3, 1941. They established their family in Davenport and Bettendorf before moving to Rochester, Minnesota, in 1957. Lucy was employed by the River Trails Girl Scout Council and John Marshall High School.
Following Robert's early retirement, they served as short-term missionaries as house parents for missionary kids at Fortaleza Academy in Fortaleza, Brazil, in 1977-1978. They lived in Alexandria, Minnesota, for 10 years before moving to Mankato in 1991. They enjoyed winters in Texas for 25 years until 2001. While there she developed a passion for oil painting. Following Robert's death Lucy resided at Old Main Village from 2001 until her death. She enjoyed the many activities there, was an avid reader, and thrived on time spent with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was a member of Bethel Baptist Church.
Lucy is survived by her four children, Diann (Deane) Tolzmann of Mankato, Janet Richter of St. Charles, Minnesota, Alan (Greta) Boldt of Kalamazoo, Michigan, and Brian (Deb) Boldt of Owatonna, Minnesota; 12 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.
Lucy was preceded in death by her husband, Robert and her son-in-law, Glen Richter.
