To everyone, Jennifer and I send our deepest sympathies. It pains me to be so far away at times like these when I should be there with all of you. I hope you understand. Aunt Lois was always kind to me and never had a harsh word for anyone. Like all of the Meadows, she was one of a kind.
Sincerely,
Floyd
I never had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Meadows… I do however know her son Wade, grandson David and daughter-in-law Margaret, fairly well. It took a remarkable woman to raise the ‘child’ Wade to the MAN I have the great pleasure of knowing. That remarkable Man married a remarkable WOMAN, who together raised a remarkable young man called David.
The fruit never falls far from the vine…
Mrs. Meadows your heritage lives on in your children & grandchildren… YOUR walk with God is apparent in THIER works and deeds.
My flesh mourns for your passing, but my soul rejouices that you now walk with the saviour!!
Save me a place next to the throne wonderful woman… I know your there … because I have had the pleasure of knowing your FRUIT.

My father was Wayne ‘Aut’ Meadows and he took me ‘visiting’ many people and fortunately I had the pleasure of meeting ‘Aunt’ Lois many years ago. My deepest sympathies to all. ‘There’s a better home awaitin’…’.
Mrs. Meadows was a very special lady. I considered her my ‘adopted’ grandmother and enjoyed visiting with her while she visited Sandra and Charles in Vaiden, MS. each year. She was delightful to be around and she will be missed much.
OUR THOUGHT’S AND PRAYER’S ARE WITH YOU.
