My prayers go out to the whole family. My Aunt Lois was also my Godmother, and although we didn't get to spend too much time together, I always remember her fondly. God Bless - Marianne Manko

Lois was my big sister. I know that she is now in Heaven rejoicing with her husband, Tom, her grandchild, Brian, holding him in her arms, her Mother, Cecelia, Father, Ralph, Grandmother Theresa Eglberger, Brothers, Joe and Ralph and all of the rest of her family and friends. Lois always watched over me as a child. She was the best sister anyone could have ever have. I know that she is no longer suffering and is at Peace.
I hope she is having a big family reunion right now with her loved ones in Heaven.
Love, Donna Brunner.
