I will surely miss Aunt "Tootsie" Lola. She was a vivacious person with a real zest for living life. I have many fond memories of her and know she's in a better place now than the past few months. Many heartfelt condolences to you and the boys, Teri, along with all our family who will miss her dearly.

Dear Family of Lola,
I had the pleasure of meeting Lola at the Hays Center in NLR, in our Water Aerobics Class. We shared lots of fun times, lots of memories of your family and her life in Griffithville and the fun things we all liked to do. She was always happy and fun to be with each day . I hope I can live my life as full as she did, she was an inspiration to all of us. Thinking of you all in your loss of this special lady. Lynn

TK,
I have so many wonderful memories of Lola! What I loved about her most was how she could cut to the chase! I can hear her laugh, but I can also hear her as she was getting on to us for something we probably should not have done! Time heals the hurt and before you know it, you are left with happy memories!
Love you, CJ
