Lois always had a smile and thank you for me , when  I would deliver to her office. It was easy to find Lois Beetling around town in her bright yellow Bug she loved so much. God Bless to all the Dutton family.

We were very sorry to learn of Lois' recent death.  She was such a warm and giving person and always ready to listen and offer advice.  We valued our friendship with her and will miss her very much.  We are thinking of Barry and the family and send our heartfelt sympathy.

Dear Barry, Lee and Family,
So very, very sad at the news of Lois' passing.
Lois was a star in every way - a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother, a smart, savvy business woman and realtor, a giving and kind human being within her community and a very good friend.
So many will miss her. She bought light and joy to us all.
Love you, Lois and all love to the Dutton Family.


My Father Stuart Fraser and I, Rodney Fraser would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family on the passing of Lois. 

I was fortunate to have Lois as my go to real estate expert during the 2000's when I purchased several properties in Victoria. With myself living in England and my Father in Nanaimo we needed someone we could trust, and we were so fortunate to meet Lois and her great team at Dutton's.

Lois's passion and knowledge for the property market was immediately clear but as well as these qualities, her commitment to amazing customer service combined with her integrity were truly remarkable.

We both felt privileged to have got to know her and she will be greatly missed.

Best regards,

Rodney Fraser

So saddened to learn of Lois's passing. My heart goes out to all of her family and friends. Every once in a while there is someone special whose path crosses our own, no matter how briefly, and leaves behind warmth, positivity, kindness, gratitude and a part of themselves that makes us better for having known them. Lois is one of those special people to me. May you experience the loving bond of family as you celebrate Lois's life. God bless you and uphold you all during this difficult time.

31 years ago Lois sold me and my husband a house, and a few weeks later she offered me a job. Taking that job turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life.

It was a privilege and a pleasure to work with Lois & Barry and I’m so proud to have been part of the building of their company. 

Lois had such energy, enthusiasm and a love for real estate and it always translated to her staff and clients.  She was an amazing woman who achieved so much, but more importantly Lois cared about the people whose lives she touched.

Lois was so much more than my employer, she was a treasured friend and I will miss her deeply.   

My heartfelt sympathies to Barry, Lee and family.


Barry and family,
My heartfelt condolences on the loss of such a shining light.  In knowing Lois, I knew grace.  In knowing Lois, I knew kindness.  In knowing Lois, I knew leadership, and in knowing Lois, I knew a servants heart.   What an amazing woman whose beautiful impact on people will continue to send ripples of blessings throughout so many lives and throughout our community.
May your memories comfort you.

Lois and I worked together for several years as Board members at 1UP Victoria Single Parent Resource Centre.  Lois was an invaluable member of the Board, guiding us through the complex developments  with our Heritage building issues. She knew everyone and everything we needed, not only organizing reports and visits but often paying for them as well out of her (and Barry's) own pocket. Extraordinarily generous, unfailingly considerate and helpful and alway so very intelligent--Lois was a delight.  Her departure is a loss to our whole community. It has been an honour to be her friend and colleague.

I was very fortunate to be hired at the outset of my career by Barry and Lois in 1999.  During the nearly 9 years I worked for them both  I learned so much including work ethics,  practical skills, and of professionalism.  All of these remain with me today!   I am very grateful and thankful to them both and to Lois for the encouragement and mentorship  she offered through the years.   Lois was an expert in her field and pursued this passionately.  Beyond this I will always have great memories of her warm, generous, and humorous personality.  I know she will be missed by many and wish Barry and family my condolences.   

To All My Dear Cousins & Barry,
Sorry, We can't be with you at this time. Our Hearts & Minds are with you now and especially on October 30th. when all of you will be together to Celebrate Lois's Life.
We have great memories of Lois & Barry when we spent a few hours with them after our 2014 Hawaii Cruise.
Another Special Time was at the Dreger Family Reunion in 2016 in Redcliff, Alberta.
Our Family is like the Branches of a Tree. We may Grow in different directions,Yet our Roots Remain as One.
Love Myrna & Bill Hubbard and Your Aunt Cathy Dreger


You count yourself blessed when the person you work for is filled with grace, integrity, kindness, wisdom and compassion.  I had the privilege of being in that circumstance for a number of years with Lois.  She not only inspired me to strive to be the best version of myself, she was an example to me of a woman of strength clothed in gentleness.  To you Barry, I send my heartfelt love and prayers. 

I began to work with Lois and Barry in 1988 and over many years I was impressed with their integrity and Lois's care of clients, staff and all who worked with her.  She has now received her reward: "Well done, good and faithful servant."
Charles Spurgeon wrote: "fill your life with gratitude"  and the many memories of Lois's wisdom, generosity and friendship will be a part of our gratitude for knowing her.
Prayers and Blessing for Barry, Lee and Ray and all the family from Luella and Ken Hillmer.  

Dear Barry and family, our hearts are deeply saddened for you. 
Lois has been a wonderful woman and has played so many different roles in my life. Believing in me more than I believed in myself. Without fail, always signing off both business and personal emails and letters with encouraging, fun, and loving words. 
Such strength clothed in gentle  charm was our Lois. 
All our love,
Katherine (Ridewood) and Fred Webb 

Barry, Lee and family, my deepest sympathies on Lois’ passing.  It was a pleasure to know and work for you.  I always felt you both had the most integrity and passion for your work than anyone I ever knew.   My sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to you.
