I am embarrassed that Wendy and I were not aware of your loss.  We just returned from Seattle, and, I believe, Lois had family in the Northwest.  I do remember our discussion at the Tucson airport last year when Lois was waiting to board. Lois was the consummate supporter of the arts (she even had perfect pitch), and her sense of humor and real kindness seemed to always be there. Her beautiful art speaks of her sensitivity and love of life.  Her inspiration will always be with me.  J. C. Green, Tucson. jcgreen60@comcast.net

I will always treasure my connection with Lois. I was blessed to be befriended by her and awed by her intuition, skill, energy, generousity, love of life and family, and impish wit and wisdom. Real friendship never ends. I will miss seeing her and her work. But her presence, her energy will always Be. Blessings to Tim, Kim, and Michele....may you carry on knowing she's gone home, Junardi

Lois shared with me her desire in life was to bring a smile to at least one person a day and if she was able to accomplish this then it was a good day.  I'll never forget her words and will try to follow her lead.  Lois will be missed by so many who were blessed to know her.

A Poem to Lois : I Will Miss You
I will miss your  warm,  genourosity.
I will miss your listening and helping me grow as an artist.
I will miss you and think of you with every picture I paint.
I will miss you.
May your name be for a blessing, Naomi Spitzer

Lois has been a dear, dear friend, mentor, teacher, fellow artist and inspiration to me, and to so many other artists.  Her paintings draw you in to her special spiritual places, and cosmic environments.  Lois was so generous with her time, advice, and conversation, as well as being a very attentive listener and thoughtful advisor.  Always the consummate professional in all of her art endeavors, serious and hard-working when necessary, but peppered every conversation with her quirky wit and sense of humor.  Lois, you have greatly enriched my life, and the lives of so many, and I will miss you always.  Thank-you for generously sharing your heart with all of us, with me. And now you get to live in all of those mystical places from your mind's eye that you painted so beautifully, and touched us with so inspirationally.    Fondly, Paula

I am so sorry for your loss.  Lois was a very genuine person and well liked.  May she rest in peace.   Amelia Galloway
