Hi, this is an old neighbor, Chuck Kronenberg. I saw the notice on Lois, very sorry for your loss.
We lived just a few houses down from the family, I played with Larry as a kid, back in the early 60's, including Boy Scouts a year or two. I still have pic from when Larry and I joined after my Dad started the troop. His loss was tragic.
Lois was a nice neighbor to my parents. My ma, Ethel, who passed in 2015, always liked her. They'd talk many times while on their walks, etc. Didn't know rest of family as well, Terry a bit until he went into service.
Our thoughts and prayers to your Family.
