I worked with Lois in The Revenue Department years ago. She went out of her way to help me. A very nice person. My condolences.

I worked with Lois for a few years before she retired from the State. Such a neat lady and someone I looked up to. Her family was blessed to have her in their lives! Lois was an angel here on earth but her family now has an Angel looking over them. Glad she is reunited with Joe!

On behalf of myself and the staff at Union Park, please know it was our pleasure and an honor to care for Lois the last few months of her life. She had a quick wit, wonderful smile, and sincerely valued her family and life long friends. Thank you for letting us care for her.
