Love from me to you in heaven....I know you will take great care of all the kitties in heaven. I enjoyed visiting with you and doing your hair. Rest now Lois, You are loved and missed......Linda, your friend and hairdresser
Sweet Lois has been part of our family for many years. She took piano lessons from Sister Mildred along with my mother Dawn Alexander and they were great friends for many years thereafter. Lois spent several Christmas holidays at our home on Lafayette when I was little. She also taught my daughter piano lessons for 10 years. We visited her at her home as children and teens as she always enjoyed showing off her "collections". She was also an influence in my becoming an RN 30 yrs. ago. There will always be a big part of my heart dedicated to Lois and her life with our family. She will be dearly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Mary Gayle Alexander Gabbard
Before her professional retirement, Lois worked with my maternal grandparents, and my earliest memories are of her (and them) at their office at 221 North College in Fayetteville. Lois was kind and generous to my sister Holly, my first cousin Nicole, and me as kids. My family -- and in particular my grandmother Ruth Lesh -- valued her constant and loyal friendship.
Lois lived a life of dignity and selflessness. I admired her, and she set a wonderful example for everyone who had the good fortune to know her.

Mrs. Giles was my piano instructor for many years. She was also a long-time family friend dating back to when my mother was a child. I spent many hours in her home on Prospect playing the piano and her gently reminding me "not too fast." My family and I thought very highly of her, and she will be missed.
I had the honor of knowing Lois through my daughter, JoAnn Traw, who was a friend of hers for many years. The two of them shared a love of cats and wonderful visits. I attended Lois’ 100th birthday party, she was a great lady. My condolences to her family and friends.
