My sympathy to the family. I feel I had a part in Lois' growing up years. She and Garry spent a lot of time over at our house. I remember one time that I had Swedish fruit soup and I always put a cinnamon stick in for flavoring. Lois spotted it and said" Oh, you have Uncle's cigar in it. Uncle lived with us till he died when Daniel was little. I could go on and tell more fun things we did with the neighbors, but we will all cherish our memories of Lois. I would like so much to come down for funeral but at this time it is not a possibility, but my thoughts will be with you. Hope we can have a part in the burial in Eagle Bend.
Love, Evelyn

Lois was with our family a lot when I was a child, kind of like a big sister. She trusted me to drive her new cars! I will always remember her laugh. So sorry I can't be there for the funeral. Val Oftedahl
