Lois Fay Read

To all of Lois Read's Family,

I discovered this memorial today and it filled me with gratitude for having known "Mrs. Read" and having received endless blessings from her. In my younger years I almost grew up with the family, staying for overnights and being around and involved in so many activities. What I learned from Mrs. Read is a huge part of who I am today. I reached back to those days throughout my life and incorporated the artistry and creativity that is still with me today.
My word of commemoration is Gratitude.
To all of her family I send my heartfelt condolences.
Sincerely,
Susan Russo

I met Lois in January of 2022 while vacationing in San Miguel d´Allende. She was over 96 years old at the time and I had invited her for breakfast at my b&b. I was amazed when she told me that she had walked 20 minutes over cobblestones and hilly terrain. She definitely had the mind and constitution of a woman decades younger. What an amazing and inspiring woman!

Kind, and Loving! Enthusiastic about Art! She loved teaching and students!
In simple terms, Lois loved the art spirit and included its philosophy as a part of her life!

Lois and I became friends in Mexico. I gave her rides a couple of times and went to her poetry reading. Such a delightful person who will be greatly missed.
