Death notice for the town of: Sherbrooke, Province: Quebec
Lois was one of a kind for sure. Although I didn’t know her well, she was my Mum’s very best friend in the world. Even after we moved to Ottawa Mum and Lois stayed in close touch. Such a vivacious and talented lady will be greatly missed but no one can say she didn’t live her life to the fullest. My sympathies to Lois’ family and friends.
