Lois M. Gottfried

Lois was born in Menasha, Wisconsin to Martha J. Pawlowski and James L. Baldwin on September 6, 1931. She graduated from Menasha High School and attended college in Danbury. She married Arthur James Gottfried Jr. (Jim) on September 15, 1951, in Menasha. She was a homemaker and prior to her marriage worked in banking. Together Lois and Jim were parishioners of St. Gregory the Great Church in Danbury for 48 years. The garden Lois cultivated at the church was to her lifelong devotion to Mary, the Blessed Virgin. A love of gardening, and being together with family, friends, and neighbors brought her immense joy throughout her life. We have all been dearly blessed by her love and will miss her greatly.
