Godspeed Lois! You will always be remembered fondly by all of us in the Muskegon Deaf family. I have wonderful memories of visiting your home when I was a child. I have wonderful memories of the women's bowling banquets I attended as interpreter. Lois was a gracious, loving Deaf woman. We will miss her very much. All my love to her husband, John Sr. May God hold him and care for him in place of his loving wife, Lois.##imported-begin##Barbara Griswold Johnson##imported-end##

Dear John, Linda, Heather, Doug, Sean, Melonie, Shannon and family, we are so sorry for your loss. It seemed appropriate to light the "rose" candle of Advent with the notificaton of her death. She was vibrant in life, her welcoming hugs and expressions. You could feel her love of life and for those around her. She was the "rose" in life and surely she will be in heaven. I am sorry we cannot be with you at this time but know we are thinking of you all at this time of sorrow.##imported-begin##Joan & Larry Cioffi##imported-end##

May God grant you peace and tranquility in your time of sorry and greif. I loved her so much.##imported-begin##Rae Ann Coon##imported-end##
I remember Lois well from the early 1980s when my deaf daughter attended Marquette School. She was a regular at school functions and potluck dinners. I don't think I ever saw her without a smile! What a dear, sweet lady. I will remember her fondly!
