Lois Stice, a talented and wonderful person, was considered a part of our family. I always knew her as "Aunt Lois". She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

My grandparents, Esther and Dean Lawson were good friends of Lois and Lyman Stice when I was growing up in Winchester. I called her Aunt Lois and I loved her like an Aunt for sure. She was a wonderful human and so was Lyman! Prayers for the entire Stice family.

Debi and family, I never had the pleasure of meeting your Mom, however, that smile says it all. May you find comfort in the many memories of all the years you shared with her. We were both blessed at having our "Mothers" for long into our adulthood. Peace to you all. Karen Hayes

Since Friday I have been struggling to find the right words to say and I have yet to accomplish that task. Lois was such a wonderful beautiful person both inside and out. Lord knows up to the very last week of her life she could likely run circles around most people half her age and younger. She was such an inspiration to so many including myself and everyone in our family. I am so thankful I was afforded the privilege to not only know her but to love her as a grandmother, even though she wasn´t my biological grandma she still considered me a grand daughter even before Jeremy and I were married. I know she was so proud of all of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was always so happy and full of love. I will be forever grateful that I was able to help care for her in her last moments here in this earth and to see that unbreakable bond she had with all of her family. She was a true matriarch!
GREAT GRANDMA LOIS,
MAY YOU FOREVER REST IN PARADISE. SPREAD THOSE GORGEOUS ANGEL WINGS AND FLY HIGH FOREVER. YOU WILL FOREVER BE MISSED HERE. WE LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH.
Love til eternity and beyond,
Jess, Jeremy, Emma,Carter, & Anthony
