I bowled on the VFW bowling team with Lois and enjoyed her so much. She was always going through so much bad health but she handled it better than anyone i have ever seen. She will truly be missed by all. Jerry and I leave Friday for Key Largo so can't make services. We have another great friend at Gundersons with services the same time that day. Will be thinking of both at that time. Rest in peace.

We bowled with Lois on Sunday night mixed league for several years. We will cherish the time we had together striving for that 300 game, or just our average most nights. She no longer has to deal with her earthly struggles with her health but she will be missed by many. Duane and Beth Davidson

I grew up across the street from Lois , Harvey and Pam, Peggy, Pat, and Terry. I have many great childhood memories of Lois. and living in Monona. Lois was a kind and generous woman. I recently ran into her and she was still the same gentle person. I am so grateful that I was able to see her again. To Lois' family, my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time.
