I enjoyed knowing Lois as a PEO sister and serving on committees with her. She was always so grateful to be with us even when her impaired vision kept her from recognizing us until we got very close. A fond memory is joining Lois for coffee and treats with several other PEOs at Scottish Rite. God's peace to her family.

A few years ago, when I would pick up Lois for PEO meetings, she always had a story and something to laugh about. I admired her positive outlook. Lois and TD were a sweet couple. He was always watching for her to come back home.
I will miss her.
Lovingly, Sherry

I want to express my sympathy to Lois family on behalf of PEO Chapter MS. I know she has been a long time and loving sister. And although she hasnt been able to attend for several years we knew she was with us in spirit. As she will always be. We will all miss her very much. In loving memory, Bonnie Taylor
