I met Lois when I owned Curves in Centerville. I always loved visiting with her. She brought her Granddaughter Ariel out to our farm when she was little and visiting from Maryland to see Benny our donkey and pet calves in the barn. Lois was so a sweet lady who loved her family very much.
Lois and I became friends when I joined BPW in Albia and we joined groups in Centerville activities back and forth. A grand lady. Full of knowledge, laughter, entertainment, kindness, caring, love. Best friend you could have. She came to church with a friend of ours and he was so surprised us 2 loisknew each other and hugged and started right in talking like we had never been apart! He couldn't believe it. He said she knew everyone. Special lady. Sorry for your loss.
I think I first met Lois in 1994, when I traveled to Iowa to meet my boyfriend's family for the first time. We ended up moving to Iowa briefly for a year, and I was fortunate to get to know Lois during that time. While we left Iowa in 1995, I always felt a fondness for Lois and enjoyed our phone chats through the years. We were lucky to host her at our house a couple times as well, and those are cherished memories. Lois was full of life, laughter, and spunk. Her laugh was infectious and I loved hearing her stories. She knew everything about the family history, and I am sad at her passing. RIP, Aunt Lois, you are loved and missed.
Great neighbor for many years- so much fun to talk with!
My dear friend. We had so many memories. I will miss your sweet voice. We go back a long ways in our friendship. Rest In Peace.
Great lady, I always enjoyed visiting with her.
