"Lois was a dear client and friend with her companion, Miss Daisy. Lois was like a mother to me. She was one of the sweetest, kindest, loving person that I have known. May Lois rest in peace with our dear Lord who certainly welcomed this wonderful lady into His arms. I will miss you!"
In loving memory of
