May the Lord Jesus bless you all with peace and His Holy Comfort at this time. Lois is a beloved child of God. Lois' love of the Lord and savior was only exceeded by His love for her. Lois was special to us during the years I served as her pastor; always encouraging, always helping, always singing, always learning, always praying, participating in ministry in many ways. She is fondly remembered. The Lord be with you all.
