Clarence and family; Joan: I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Lois' passing. She and I became dear friends when we were office mates at the Office of Education. Donna was the flower girl at my wedding, and you Clarence was a groomsman. You, Pam, Donna and Karen were the loves of her life. You also Joan. I will always have cherised memories of Lois and the great times we had working together. My prayers and condolences are with you all. Lester sends his condolences also. Clarence/Joan please contact me at 202-574-1037.
