We were very sorry to hear of the loss of your
Mother. We will be thinking of you.
So sorry for your loss. I have lots of good childhood memories when I would spend the night with Judy. I loved eating breakfast with them because Lois always made the best biscuits & chocolate gravy. When we were a little older, they would take us to the Drive-In or to the Hooten-Anny. Love those memories & just want the family to know I am praying for God to comfort you through this time.
our sincere sympathy and prayers are with you & your family in the loss of your Mother and Grandmother.
Lois was a good friend, faithful listener to KCGS, and caller to the Swap Shop. She was always very nice to me. Gail and I extend our sympathy and prayers to the
family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Kemmy, Janice, and Family,
We are so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a very
sweet person and "really" enjoyed collecting the State Quarters.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
God Bless You,
Ben and Judy
This was one fine lady. A wonderful sister in Christ. we will miss her. We want the family to know that our prayers are with you in this time of sorrow.
So very sorry for your loss. I wish I could be there, but am with Logan in Hospital at St. Louis. I have so many wonderful memories of going to Aunt Lois' house. Loved her canned beets. One of my fondest memories was sitting there and she kept feeding them to me even though Mom said I'd had enough. Such a reunion she is having with Dad and family. My prayers are with you.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Sorry for your lose. You are in our prayers
