Jo and I are so sorry to hear the sad news.

We will always remember Lois as a great and fun lady.

Jo especially remembers when Lois would invite all the SA wives to Saturday morning tea. This was a great effort on her part to get the wives to mingle and meet each other.

Jo also remembers the fun times she had with Lois when they would play weekly bridge games with Nick Fasciano's wife and Gerrie Penovi.

Oh, how I will miss Our darling Lois. Her occasional phone calls kept me in touch with her part of the family. She was so sweet to think of me. I would like all of Lois' loved ones to know how much all her family meant to me throughout my life. My prayers are with you. June Schmalz Rees (Belle Edith's daughter).
