Lois was one of my "BEST" friends from High School and and through our UND days!  I always admired her and am sorry we did not see her much after UND Graduation. We always kept in contact with our Christmas cards, but whish we'd stayed intouch more.  Our Condolences and prayers to her family and other friends!  She will be missed!
