My sincere sympathy to Jim, Keith, Kathryn, Loretta & their families. Lois was a wonderful neighbour for the first 30 years I lived near Ilderon. I visited with her about 10 days before I left to see Doug & Heather, & she was quite unwell. I am in Whitehorse with Heather, & unable to see you this week, but will be in touch when I get home. Remember that Lois is at peace, & that happy memories will shine through grief.
