Mommom,

You were such an outgoing, loving, and giving Mommom. You were always there for me, and gave me anything I wanted. It’s so hard to believe that you’re not here anymore. I will never forget all the time I spent with you as a kid going to Disney and staying in the camper in Orlando, to you attending my high school and college graduation. You loved your boys, grandkids, and shopping. I’ll always think of you every-time I go to walmart. You loved the pool and golf cart rides, and those were always so fun. I love you so much Mommom, and I will miss you forever. You are forever in my heart, continue to come visit me. I see your spirit here with me often already! I love you mommom forever always, 
Your favorite grand-daughter, 
Danielle

Dear Raymond, 
I’m am sorry for your loss. Lois was a nice person. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.  
Trish. 

(Aunt Maude and Uncle James youngest)

I have known Lois since she was 15 years old. She joined our family when she married my brother in 1966.
Although we know that  she no longer is suffering, our family will miss her. She leaves a huge empty place in us family.
Lois, we will miss you.

Lois, I am sincerely devastated that your are not here. I cannot even believe it. It’s hard to imagine that you won’t be coming to stay with us this summer for a few weeks. It became so natural to have you here with us, at least once a year. 

I’ll always remember when I got pregnant with Anthony, you were the first person to send over baby clothes more than I knew what to do with & you were prepared. I had clothes for every gender and every age. All washed & folded and separated by size. 

You were the FIRST PERSON TO TAKE ME TO DISNEY! I was all upset because I was pregnant and couldn’t go on the rides and you said “Deanna, we’ll just spend the day together while they go on the rides”. Then we were getting yelled at by Poppop for almost running people over in the motor scooter. And I am so happy I got to spend that time with you. We learned so much about each other. 

Anthony misses you too ❤️ He says he thought you and Poppop owned Disney because of all the Disney toys you would bring him. He can’t believe that you won’t be here this summer either. He says he will miss eating McDonalds nuggets with you on days we went out. 

Rest Rasy Lois, I love & miss you - Deanna. 

Hi Mommom, I can’t believe you are gone. It feels like just yesterday you were in Delaware with us and we were making jokes in the basement before we went to bed. Or running around trying to go to all of the stores you wanted to go to so you can pick up stuff for Uncle Donny before returning home. Walking around WalMart for hours just so you could stay out of the house. I will forever miss you. I know that you are in a happier place, no longer in pain and are with your parents & Seth. 

I’m sorry I cannot make it to your funeral but I promise that I will come visit you & Poppop to make sure that he is doing okay. I love you Mommom, Rest In Peace ❤️🙏

Aunt Louis,
   I remember when all you and uncle Ray did was travel the states in that big RV and call the many wonders of the road your back yard.  You definitely set a high bar, and went to the stars on your way to the moon.  You experienced things others will only ever dream about. Although your travels were cut short here, you have many beautiful, and exciting adventures awaiting you on the other side of the gates, surrounded by those who proceeded you to accent the staircase. 
God bless, Farewell, and Rest In Peace

I have a lot of really special memories with you Mommom. I’ll always remember all of the times you and poppop came down to New Jersey in your motor home and would take us to Thousand Trails campground. I’ll always remember our trips to Disney when we were little and all of the beautiful dresses you’d gift to me❤️ 
When I was pregnant with the twins you came down to stay for a month. I remember being so swollen from having pre-eclampsia and sitting at the counter crying. You came up to me and starting crying with me and said “Gabriella you look so beautiful pregnant, don’t be upset” and I started laughing and we were both historically laughing/ crying. You were so worried about me when I was pregnant and I knew i could always talk to you about how I was feeling that day and you’d just listen to me go on and on. I’m so happy you were there for the baby shower, and I’m grateful you were able to meet the boys a few times. I’m truly going to miss having our phone calls. You were the only person I could call and just vent about everything I was feeling and going through, you never judged and you always made sure I knew that you were always there to listen. Even when you knew I wasn’t making the right choice, you supported what I did anyway.  I’m going to miss our phone calls so much. I love you and miss you always ❤️ Xoxo your favorite (haha), Gabriella  ❤️

It is going to take some time for me to stop myself from picking up the phone to call if I think it’s been too long since we talked. It’s going to be awhile that I stop saying “ Ray and Lois” because for 54 years I don’t think I’ve said one name without adding the other with it! 
   Most of our conversations for the last two years were filled with you telling me about all the activities you are enjoying and the friends you have made, and that was a wonderful thing! I’ll admit, the phone calls weren’t as often as they used to be but they were filled with brand new stories. I’ll miss all of those conversations, the laughter, the tears and the excitement. 
   I know you’re in a better place now, connecting with all of our loved ones that have gone before. I have faith that one day we will all be in that place celebrating as we have all done here in our earthly bodies, but we will all be whole and pain and worry free. 
   We’ve spent so many hours especially Since Seth went home to be with God just imagining how he was running and playing and getting reacquainted with those who took care of him prior to his stay on earth. We talked about how you would one day be together again and how you longed for that day. As much as I will miss you here, I find comfort in knowing that you are pain free and reacquainted with loved ones.  I know you will watch over the rest of us here, and hopefully give us signs that all is how we pictured it.  God knows we all need extra Guardian Angels and now we have you. 
 “  I love you” is how we ended every phone call and on the rare occasions we got to see each other, this time I’ll say “ I love you Lois... see you later”
                                Always and forever,
                                        BetteAnne
  

Lois was so loved by all us girls.  We will miss her at the pool and when playing cards.  She was always such a kind and generous person.   She is free from pain and in Heaven now.  We will see her again.  May she Rest in peace.  Love you girl !


I first met Lois one day at the pool.  From the minute I first saw that sweet smile, I knew we would be great friends.   We spent many warm days swimming at the pool and sitting at a table in the shade.  Our friendship grew to include other special ladies.  We would often ride around in our golf carts, just for fun.  She loved it.  

We grew to love Lois very much and will miss her sweet smile each and every day.  

Lois also known as MOM, was a beautiful, caring, and loving lady. There wasn't a day that went by that either Donny/Murph or I didnt talk to her. If she couldn't reach her Donny she would call me. We would call in the evening and she would say   "I'm just sitting here watching TV." (Usually QVC.) She loved to shop. I would always say. "Watcha buying now mom?" 
We sure are missing those calls and talks. 
Mom, I know you have your arms around Seth now and your both flying high with no pain. May you rest in peace till we see you again. 
You will be missed so much and we love you forever! Xoxo
