Lois was a vibrant, beautiful force that lived life to the fullest.  She would say her greatest achievement would be the 7 children that she raised; each one different than the other, but they share a strong bond of love, friendship and support for one another that truly is inspiring.

Lois was an incredibly talented lady.  She loved to sing and dance.  Some may remember her starring role in “Mame” many years ago with the Riverside Theater Guild.  She cherished being part of the St.Mary’s variety shows with her late husband Jack.  Taking on numbers like “Honey Bun” from South Pacific and “Sue Me” from Guys and Dolls, just to name a few.

The past several years she has been an active, independent resident at Plymouth Place and she just loved living there!  She was always on the go and so generous with her time.  She volunteered whenever she could – supporting those in need with her hospice work and through the church as a Catholic worship deacon.

She touched so many lives with her warmth, vivaciousness and humor.  She will be truly missed.
