Condolences for the family of “Lois Helen Braun”
So sorry for your loss.
It was my honor and privilege to know Lois and to work with her at Plantation Foods for many years. She was an extraordinary person: cheerful, peaceful, unassuming but strong and diligent and capable far beyond what might be normal or expected. I was delighted every time I was with her and very proud that she worked with us. I hold her now, with God, in my heavier heart…with love.
I remember the days at St. Paul School, Lois was always happy and caring for everyone. In later years each time I we would see each other she always wanted to catch up with everything. Lovely person and we will miss her.
It is a beautiful service honoring and remembering Lois’s life. She was always loving and gave the tightest hugs! She always wanted to make sure we were doing good. Her life is a blessing to so many. Everyone in the family is in my prayers and I wish I was there to hug each of you. Prayers continue to go up! I am thankful for Lois and how she blessed my life!
Thank you for the opportunity to care for your loved one. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
