My sincere heartfelt condolences are extended to the entire family of Lois. She was an incredible person. Her kindness, compassion, strength, and faith, were a great example to all. I am thankful for her presence in the earlier years of my life, during my involvement with Centre Road Church. I have fond memories; her joy each Sunday, her butterscotch cheesecake at church potlucks, and her Bible verse sword drills. But more important than these memories are what she taught me: Giving – she was probably my first example of someone who gave to her community unconditionally. She devoted so much of her time and effort to make the lives of people around her better. Faith – she taught me that faith is much more than just going to church or Sunday school every week. It is a stronger belief, a lifestyle, a commitment to serve a higher purpose – for which she was a living example.
