Dear Uncle Eddie & family:
I am so very sorry for your loss.
Aunt Lois will truly be missed. I will always have great memories of seening both of you and your family either at the Walker's house, Smith family functions, especially at Grandma & Grandpa Smith's house or at your after Christmas parties. Thank you so much for making me feel part of the family at all times.
With love & deepest sympathies: Kathie

Aunt Lois I will mis you very much. You were a very kind and loving person. When I lived in buffalo you took me into your home and always treated me like I belonged. There were times in my life when I did not know where I belonged and you were always there for me and let me know I always had a home. When I was around you I always felt loved and for that I can never thank you enough. Funny thing is we would always tease you about the water works because you would always get emotional when ever I had to go home or some one was leaving for a long time. There are three things that I will miss the most, your laughter, your crying and your macaroni and cheese that you used to make. (crazy the things you remember from life) you tought me how to laugh and how to love and I hope some day Shaylyn will know how to do the same as well as you. I miss you and you will always be in my heart.
Love

Eddie,
I am so sorry. When I saw you and Lois at my Dad's funeral last year she still looked like the girl you were going out with 40 years ago. She was a bright light in the world. We'll miss her.
