Lois and family...so sorry for your loss. I haven't seen Lois or Smitty in many, many years. But remember both of them as wonderful people. They loved each other dearly. I still have a wooden box lined with cloth that Smitty made (wedding/shower gift) back in the 80's when I worked at Summerfield Chevrolet with Lois.
