* My heart goes out to you and your family during this difficult loss. Please let me know if there is anything that I can do for you in this trying time. * It’s the little things, the small, everyday occurrences that you’ll remember. The laughs, the stories, the smiles. And even though it seems like you can never recover from your loss, it is these very memories that will help push the pain away and bring back the smiles. Love,Sharon
Lois was a sweet and generous person. She was wonderful to Mother and Daddy and offered encouragement and kindness to me during some difficult times. All my prayers and love to Ginnie and the family.
