Lois was my (Cathy) fathers sister and I know he thought the world of her. She was a wonderful lady who always put others before herself. I know she is in heaven looking down at her family with her loved ones who have already passed.
Her entire family is in our thoughts and prayers.
God bless,
Cathy and Jerry
I am one of Bettys good friends. I got to know Lois really well thru her. She was a special lady. When she first moved in with Betty, I took a picture of the deer in our backyard, and gave it to Lois. When the deer were appearing at Bettys quite regular I didn’t do that anymore. She loved her deer and watching them. Yes, she was a wonderful lady. I know she is looking down on her family and hoping they are taking care of the deer, and Charley, her special baby. God bless the family and I am sending hugs to Betty every day.
