  1. Abby and Jeff, We want to extend our deepest sympathy in the loss of your loved one. Her battle is over! She was definitely a strong woman to deal with the cancer for so long. Rest assured she is home with Christ, and her suffering is over. Hang in there, God says he will ease your grieving even in the times that it feels overwhelming. Thinking of you at this most difficult time. Sandy and Mark Butcher

  2. Abby, Jennifer, and Jeff: Let me first say that I am so very sorry for your loss. Lois was a part of my life for a time and was certainly someone that I have and will never forget. She was a good lady who touched several lives in her short time here. Words can’t take away the pain you are all feeling; but, my sons and I are keeping you in our prayers and know that God will help ease your pain in time. God Bless all of you.

  3. I am so sorry for your loss she was a great woman. I can remember when she use to watch me when my mom and dad worked at the hospital. She watched me grow up. And she was one of the first ones to come see me when i had my first little girl. My prays and thought are with you all. She always had a way of making me smile when i did not want my mom and dad to go to work. Lois i know your with my mom and dad now and your not hurting or sick.You will always have a place in my heart you have from the first time i meet you.

  4. To the family of Lois Morris, while reading about Lois it is clear that she was a wonderful person that was very happy with the simple things in life. I am sorry for your loss, so I wanted to share an encouraging thought to all of you from the Bible. In John 5:28,29 Jesus stated the following, “Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out…” It is an encouraging thought that it will not be a long time before all those we have lost in death will be resurrected and we can be with them again.
