Not sure what to say?

I remember Lois from my early childhood. I had been in foster care at the time and lived with her daughter Char. Her and I had gone down to Florida to visit Lois and Bill over one of the vacations. I think it may have been Spring actually. I remember when being there, they treated me like I was their grandchild, letting me swim in their pool, wearing minnie ears LOL, that Char had bought me when visiting Disney world. That was a time I will always remember and cherish. Will never forget...

Lois was a wonderful lady. I was her house keeper for 7 years, she was a friend to me and our realtor also.I will always remember her and Bill with fondest memories.Susan

My earliest and fondest memories of Lois were those rides home from Childs Garden of Learning with her son and my childhood friend Billy. On some occasions when my mother worked, Lois would provide a few hours of after school watch and we might feast on grilled cheese and lemonade.

Lois was very much like my 2nd mom, I loved her dearly and will miss her immensely. She was my 2nd grade teacher at Childs Garden of Learning, where I met my life long friends, the Searl family. They have remained very close friends through these many years and have included me in their family. My memories are many... my Mom and Lois making our formals for 3rd grade graduation, trips to camp in Georgia, many birthday celebrations and more recently our plane trip to LA to visit Barbara &...

I worked with Lois in her real estate office on Doris Drive as her Secretary back in 1998. She was elegant, statuesque, determined and fun. My daughter, Krystal, a young teenager at the time, thoroughly enjoyed helping us during the summer answer the phones, filing and simply "playing office". Together with Lois's Real Estate Agents, we all shared much laughter, and joy. She was a Radiant Woman and I am blessed to hold an abundant of precious memories of her.

Lois was my friend and one of the highlights and special people in my life. She was loved.
