  1. Jane and Jennifer,

  2. The memories of Aunt Lois are so many and so heart warming. She was always willing to help. Her laugh was so contagious. We loved her and will miss her. We will be praying for your family. Ann, Sara and Helen

  3. Jane, Jennifer and Family,

    Be assured of our prayers during this time. I have very good memories of Lois and Herbert. Her kindness and support of the church and its ministries was always encouraging.In terms of personal support, she often told me that she was praying for me. Additionally, after Herbert died, she gave me a nice, like-new leather jacket that I enjoyed wearing.
    I did not know that she was living again in the Asheville area. I am pleased that she was a Christian lady and now has residency with the Lord.
    God bless you!
    Ronnie Owen,Pastor, Mt. Carmel Baptist
