A poem titled "Life" written by Lois will be shared in her memory.

Darn this life

When leaves begin to fall,

Taking loved ones at random

Not caring who it hurts at all.

Words won't help now.

This hurt you feel

Only time will allow

The wound to heal

There is a consolation,

How small it may be,

That we are all bound

For this trip into eternity.

Take heart, dear friend,

I know your pain.

May god bless you and yours

And soothe your heart again
