Lois established a lovely home where she entertained family, friends, and guests with warmth and hospitality. She was an excellent cook, well known for her pies. She welcomed grandchildren with her freshly made spritz, toffee, and divinity. Her grandchildren (and many of their friends) affectionately called her “Gramsy”, and each shared a special bond of love and friendship with her. She always showed special interest and concern about the lives of her family and was respected and loved by all. Lois had a deep faith in God, her family, and the importance of having your hair done. She will be deeply missed.
