Dear Jerry and Family,
Just learned of Lois' passing. My sincere condolences to you.  I saw Lois in Oswego for our  50th College  Reunion.  I still have the red suede cloth  purse that she gave to her sorority sisters.  I still see her now with her great smile, her endless energy and her kind friendship.  Just remember all the good times.  She would want that.  I will not forget her.  RIP

Dear Jerry and Family,
I am so saddened to hear of Lois' passing.  We were sorority sisters and she was the most beautiful, vibrant, kind and funny person.  I can still see her standing on the raised platform at your wedding.  We had truly wonderful times.
My thoughts are with you and your children.

Dear Jerry,
I'm so shocked to see this on the internet.  I've been calling and emailing messages and knew something was just not right.  What happened?  I was away much of August and didn't see or hear of Lois' passing.  Please accept my condolences.  I loved talking to Lois and am deeply shocked and saddened by this news. She was a terrific lady and will miss her greatly.  Sandy Seligsohn

I am so sorry to hear of Lois' passing.
My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.
I also have such wonderful memories of Lois growing up at your house when we were kids

Dear Jerry, Stuart, Larry and Mara, I am so shocked and deeply saddened for you all and your families, all of the beautiful friends you all have who have just lost such a truly lovely and amazing woman. I always thought Lois was incredibly kind, sharp in every respect and to the core an optimistic, fun and encouraging person....a Menschette. So many of my most favorite times growing up were road trips leading to wonderful and raucous times with you at the end of the journey and Kids' New Year's Eves that were so NY cool at that age I didn't care if the year in between was a dud. Much love and my sincerest condolences to you for such a terrible, unfathomable loss. My Mum just told me and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Jerry, Stuart, Larry, Mara and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Lois' passing.  I have such fond memories as a child of her and your family.  Thinking of you during this time.

Dear Jerry,
We just learned of Lois' passing and needless to say Gerry and I are so very sorry. From driving the children to nursery school to the wonderful treasures found at the boutique you both created I see her beautiful smile and welcoming nature. She was beautiful both inside and surely out!
So sorry!
Linda and Gerry Eisen

Jerry,

We just returned from a short trip and heard about Lois.

As you know, we do go back quite a number of years sharing many good experiences with the kids and wonderful memories, not to mention the many great gifts from Lois's boutique.

Our thoughts and sympathies go out to you and your family and we wish the best for you.

                          Linda and Gerry Eisen

Reiter Family, so sorry to hear my Jewish mom is no longer with us.  It was so great to see her at Hannah's Bat Mitzvah. I'm so lucky to have had so many fun times with you all.  It's not going to be easy, we're going to miss her but will never forget her.

Your Chinese Son/Brother,

My heart is sad to learn of Lois' passing.  I am an old friend from way back in the 50's and 60's, and although I have not been in touch with the family, I have warm memories of Jerry and Lois.  My sincere sympathy dear Jerry for your loss.  May you gain comfort from your family and friends who care so much.

Dear Jerry, Stuart, Larry, Mara and Families- My heartfelt sympathy to you on the loss of Lois, a beautiful woman on the inside and out, a warm, loving and caring friend who will be missed greatly.
May all the many precious loving memories of Lois help to bring you peace and comfort during these sorrowful days.
With Love,
David

I spent many a day in her lovely store and bought all my baby and house gifts their, she always had a smile and conversation for everyone.  I was very sorry to hear of your great loss.  Sincerely Sue Solomon

Just by being herself, Lois touched lives and lived a purposeful life!  She was magic to Jerry, their children and grandchildren.  She made everyone feel special and comfortable and always cared deeply about something bigger than herself.

All of this created a secret sauce for her family to carry forward and they too are all blessings to their families.

To borrow from the 60's a toast to a wonderful woman, 
Don't let it be forgot that there was once a spot for one brief shining moment that was known as Camelot.

Our deepest condolences-----

I am overcome with sadness of this news.  My most sincere sympathy and love to Jerry, Mara, and the boys.  I see her bubbly smile in all my thoughts.  How she loved life!
