Lois was my father's best and most faithful choir member back in the early 1950's. I have such warm memories of her.

Lois, you will be remembered by me for your kindness in accepting me as the newest sister-in-law in the Foust family all those many years ago. I loved your laugh and your generosity. You were a wonderful aunt to our four children.
Lois love the Lord and her family. Rest in peace dear sister.

Lois, your love for our Lord shined thru every day. The way that you played the piano in church and sang for His glory will always be with me! I am truly saddened at our loss and your family's loss but extremely happy for heaven's gain! I'm sure that heaven needed you to sing and play the piano for heaven's choir. You will be missed but never forgotten!
