In the I am sorry for your loss. Seeing Lois’s death notice brought back many memories. After
Bills death I stayed in Henrietta. Not much contact with Holmans. In March of this year I moved into The Village at Providence Park.
Today I have been remembering fun times spent with Barney, Lois and you Lee Boys.
I will be praying for each of you in the days ahead.
I have fond memories of Aunt Lois. I know you will miss her so much. I will miss her, too. I always enjoyed being with her. She never seemed to change and was always amazingly beautiful.
Now she is in heaven with Mother and Aunt Gladys and they can all be together again. I miss them all.
