Kathleen Phelan wrote a sympathy message

“I met Lois soon after moving to Leisure Village. She would be out walking her beloved Daisy with Jeanne. Lois always had rosy cheeks and a warm smile. She was a lively influence at the pool, too. She always had friendly and lively family with her to swim - sisters, sisters-in-law, nephews, daughters - There was always a party when Lois was there. It will be much quieter at the pool without her next summer. She will be remembered and missed. Kate Phelan”
