I wanted to take a moment to say how thankful I am to have had known Aunt Lois and had the pleasure of having her in my life. With our family living in Florida our visits were brief over the years but I always enjoyed them. Aunt Lois always showed how much she cared. I was so happy that my son Ethan was able to meet her and spend some time with her. He loved sending her pictures and little notes to say hi. With Technology these days it’s rare to send a letter through the mail. He thought it was neat and enjoyed it. How amazing to be able to say he visited with his Great Great Great Aunt!! I have fond memories of when I was little going over to her house and visiting with her, Bill and Gramma Cline. We would have Cherry Ice Cream, play games and play with the Lincoln Logs. She is an angel on earth and she will be greatly missed.

Sarah and Patrick, what a Blessing your mother was in our life for over 50 years. She went from Tupperware manager to lifelong friend. She was so loving, considerate, caring and understanding. Always asking about family, sharing about her family and gave others a "listening ear". We'll truly miss visiting her both in person and on the phone. We' have fond memories of the Bridge Day train ride from Huntington to Hinton (& back). Lois spoke of it frequently. So glad we were able to share the time with her. We arrive home from FL late 12/01 and have church commitment 10:00AM 12/02, but will try to drop by Liberty St. Church if time allows. Love to all.
