She and her family were members of St.

She studied business in high school and was an excellent student.

Later, she started her professional career.

She became the first female advertising salesperson at the Pawtucket Times.

She was very proud of her accomplishments, becoming the top sales performer for many years.

She loved meeting new people and achieved success with her abilities and relationships with her co-workers and customers.

Her self-esteem soared!

Lois was a mom who loved her children and supported them in their endeavors with sports and activities.

Her passions were cruising, reading, playing card games with co-workers and later in life Mah Jongg and bingo.

She remembers fondly her travels with her second husband, Bill Kruel motoring on the “Lois K” to Jamestown.

Most of all she enjoyed time with her children providing advice, counseling, and understanding.

She took great joy in watching her grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow and develop.

She had a life full of joy, challenges, laughter, and love.
