Lois was a very special person and I was so proud to have known her. I worked many years with her and Roy on the Cancer Society crusade. We had many fun times and lots of hard work as well. We had many breakfasts or lunches at Pearson’s in Edina. We covered a lot of year’s and I have to admit I lost track of her after Roy’s passing but I never forgot her. I think often of my time with both her and Roy. I treasure that time. My thoughts and prayers go to the family who was so important to her. God Bless.
