Our sincere condolences to the Goding family from the Weber family. My Mom and Dad, Harry and Cathie Weber, were good friends with Lois and Bud, and I believe the four of them had some serious good times together. I remember bits and pieces from my childhood, and one of them is that Lois (Mrs. Goding to me!) was a very creative friend... always designing and decorating and making things. On behalf of my Mom Cathie and my siblings Tim, Susan, Peter and Karen, I wish you all the best at this time of loss and of remembering dear Lois.

Condolences to the entire Goding family from the Mary Denney family. Lois and our mother Mary had a terrific friendship over many, many years that included bringing up us kids and on through travel and friendship into their senior years. I think there were many 'fun times' and laughter shared by Lois and Mary. All the best to the entire family at this sad but memorable time.

Mike, Dan, Mary and Sue ..... I was so saddened to learn of your loss, my heart aches for you all at this time. Memories of love and families are treasures to carry with you ALWAYS. And that's what I've been doing -- remembering and replaying all those wonderful moments that your mom created. Whether she was creating a decorative masterpiece, wearing her costume for the party, or getting her picture in the local paper for a "Best" recipe, your Mom was fun, unique, and we all will miss her.

I feel so sorry about your loss of your mom. I didn't know her well but her kindness to my mom while they both lived at Plum left a lasting impression. I didn't know she worked in design but it doesn't surprise me and explains why your mom stood out as a spirited and snappy dresser!!! Wishing you peace knowing your mom and dad are together again!

I first met Lois at Plum Landing. We had many great conversations about Aurora, Madonna and her relationship with the Weisners who I was also close to. Condolences to the family.

Dear Mike, Dan, Mary & Sue
My condolences to each of you and to your families. May God bless all of you & surround you with His comfort & love. Auntie Lois leaves me with fond memories, especially of family get-togethers during the holidays when we were kids. We would either be at your house on Kingsway or house on Calumet. Simpler times, but endearing times. Rest in heavenly peace, Auntie Lois - give Uncle Bud a kiss & hug for me.
