MIRSKY, Lois (nee Barnett) Of Westwood, Plymouth, W. Roxbury, and New Haven, entered into eternal peace on Feb. 18, 2021 after a struggle with Lewy Body Dementia. Beloved wife of Irwin Mirsky; mother of Scott (married to Kathy), Peter (married to Betsy), and Andy (married to Trish); six grandchildren, Daniel 26, Darla 23, Julia 21, Alex 18, Ben 18 and Nate 17; sister, Jane Grignetti (married to Mario); and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins whom she loved dearly. Lois grew up in New Haven, CT with parents Harry and Marion Barnett with her older brother, Jerry (deceased), and younger sister, Janie, with whom she shared a profound bond. Lois attended Wheelock College in Brookline, graduating in 1954 with a BS in Education and remained active with the school her entire life. While at Wheelock she met Irwin and they were married in 1954 after her graduation. With first son Scott they made their way up to the Boston area and lived in West Roxbury for 10 years, ultimately settling in Westwood for 38 years. Irwin was her best friend who she did everything with, from putting together a family celebration, sailing in Boston Harbor on their boat or traveling to Norway or Ireland. They were connected at the hip. Lois loved to work and keep busy. She was an early riser who loved walking, especially with Irwin and their beloved English Cocker Spaniel, Reggie. Lois was a caring, loving, compassionate person who loved her family and friends more than anything. She lit up the room with her smile and her blue eyes and never had a bad word to say about anyone. Lois was an avid writer who recently had a book published called "Special Stripes" geared towards young children addressing the topic of bullying. Lois especially loved to write about her family and created a magazine called "Family Matters" engaging all members to contribute personal stories and "Reflections." Lois had integrity and could be fierce in her outrage over injustices. She also maintained a lifelong love and commitment to her religion and cultural traditions. Lois will be dearly missed by her family and friends but loved forever by all and is now in the hands of God for eternity.
