Lois was all about “Family”. She was a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother and aunt. She was always ready for a kiss and a hug from all her family. She loved to cook and made the best chocolate pies!
She loved the Lord and it gives the family great comfort to know that she has gone home to be with him.
