I will miss Lois terribly. She was the type of person that everyone could call their friend. One of the things I remember about growing up in Neola Church was the beautiful music when she played the piano. Her music was a reflection of her....beautiful !!!

One of the nicest and dearest people that you would ever want to meet. It is very unfortunate that the best people in life are always the ones to go first. Condolences from my family to all members of Lois' household. She will be remembered in all our prayers.

My memories of Lois are ones that bring a smile to my face. What a lovely, sincere, gentle woman. I never knew of her to be angry or to ever say an unkind word. Such a wonderful role model for anyone who knew or came in contact with her. My heart goes out to Lois' family and I send my sincere condolences to all.
Sincerely,
MJ Hardy

I have some fond memories of Neola and the Voige family...from working with Al in the shop...Tom in class....some great parties and get togethers at the house and of course the pool partys. Lois was always a happy,caring person and I'm sure she will be missed.
