Lois,

Though you and Dee were not born into our family, you've been a part of it for so long it's hard to remember a time before you were in our lives. I am going to miss her terribly. Her laugh, her sense of humor and her thoughtfulness. Dee always brought a little extra liveliness to our get-togethers and it was a privilege to have been a friend of hers. You are in my prayers.
