We were always in awe of Lois who possessed many talents. She just amazed us with her accordian playing and singing. She also was so gifted in her sewing skills and when she made Sonja a flower girl dress for our wedding, we were more than impressed how Sonja's dress matched Sandra's wedding dress so well without even seeing a picture of it!
We both offer our loving condolences for your loss. May God be with you all now and always!
