It does not seem that long ago
my friend Lois and I were having
lunch together. Time passes
slowly and 7 years have come
and gone and I still miss my
friend. Time does not always
heal the wounds left by a loss
of a dear friend.

Lois was always such a wonderful person that took the time to guide and give advice to the young women at Paragon Group. We all loved her dearly.I once told her "she had the patience of Job" to which she quickly responded, "Honey, I AM Job". She always shared her beautiful smile and gave me reason to smile as well.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time.

Mrs. Cummings was my second grade teacher at Immaculate Conception in Maplewood. She introduced me to Charlotte's Web among other things I have cherished through life. Please know all of you are in my prayers. I will always remember her....
