    Betty & Linn, So wish I could be there at the funeral! Am so blessed and happy that Judy and I got to spend time with Lois and Betty when they made the trip back over Memorial Day weekend. We had such a wonderful visit! To Christine and Jim – your mom was a hoot and a half! She was blessed with such a wonderful sense of humor and the times we had as children playing will always be a great memory for me. God bless you all! Cousin Sherry (Pomeroy) Hilley.

    My prayers to the family. I only met Lois once, but I could tell she had a great personality. I am sure she will be missed by her friends and family.

    Chrissy and Jim…So very sorry to hear of Lois’ passing. Feel blessed I was able to see her and Betty this summer in Manning, Iowa. Our families were friends way back in the day. She was so easy to talk to. Enjoyed her Christmas letters…always the first one to arrive😊 You are in my prayers. Jean Stangl Behrens, formerly from Coon Rapids.
    Sympathies to Betty and Lynn and families as well.
