My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Lois. She was a beautiful person whom will be greatly missed by many in the community of Cedar Rapids and Marion. Lois would always bring treats to us so that we could start an IV access for her. Along with that she always brought a smile and warm wishes. I was especially fond of being able to share crochet patterns with her, we would talk for extended periods of time about new patterns for baby blankets that we had seen or tried. I will greatly miss her.
