Cathie nd Connie,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Your mom had such a kind spirit about her and she was very good to my family during the time leading up to and after the loss of my mom - her sister Marion. Your mom had a quick wit about her and I loved her deep laugh! I remember for years how her and my mom would go tag saling on Saturdays and out to lunch and then out to breakfast on Sundays which included Uncle Jimmy. I pray that she rests in peace now and is with your dad, John, our grandmother and grandfather, Uncle Francis, Aunt Dorothy and my mom and I pray that they are all in a place full of love. Keeping you both in my heart.

Cathy and Connie and families: Words cannot express how sorry we are at the passing of Lois. I think back to more than 30 years of wonderful memories, of Christmas' with your family, of the four of us growing up together, and never really losing touch with Lois over all those years. She was a kind, sweet, wonderful woman, who loved her animals, and honestly, had the most beautiful skin (I always told her that!)May she rest in peace now. She will always be in your hearts - and mine.
