Kathy, Cindy and Family — we will miss Lois very much. Loved getting together for family weddings, and had great times at the Nudo house on Rutherford Street, didn’t we? She was a beautiful and loving lady. We so enjoyed seeing her a few short months ago. Love, Carol and Marty
My wonderful and forever giving grandmother lived a fabulous, loving life and now is back with her husband and passed family.
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Lois twice, the last time being at Brian and my wedding. We were so appreciative that she was able to attend with her daughters . I treasure being able to have met another family member on the Nudo side of the family, having joined the family after Dorothy had passed. You’re in my thoughts, Lois!

Dear Cindy & Kathy & their families, Sending our sincere condolences in the passing of your mother. I will remember her always as such a nice lady and knowing her as far back as a child going to school at Marland Heights Elementary. With our loving thoughts and prayers,
I will always fondly remember Aunt Lois and the times we spent together. May she rest in peace.
We bought our first house from Lois and Ben and they moved next door to us on Brightway. They were wonderful neighbors. Lois was always so kind and thoughtful. She was an ideal neighbor. She was also my childrens’ secretary at their school. We lived so close they could come home for lunch. Imagine that? I knew they were in good hands with Lois at the school. God rest her soul and your family is in our prayers. It’s never easy to lose your mother.
So sorry to hear about Lois. It is so hard to lose someone so close. Keep those memories close. She was a wonderful person.
Cindy and family, I am sorry to hear about your mother. I have such fond memories of her when I went to Marland Heights School!
