  Bill and Lois emitted kindness anytime I saw them at West Side Pres. Their kids were a bit older than me their entire family was the kind you’d want to be around. Lois especially was always warm and friendly. Though they’re together again, I’m still sorry for the remainder of the family for this huge loss. Their love story of meeting is pretty special and you don’t hear of stuff like this much anymore.

     Lois and I met when we both started to work for Pacific Tel and Tel  -in downtown Seattle.  Lois’ mother, ‘Ma Wallen’ (to me),  was my second mother for several years – while we three lived together.  I met Bill when he began ‘courting’ Lois.  He was ‘determined’ that he was going to marry her!  She was not so sure – at the early part of their courtship.  But, he never gave up  -and –  finally won her over.  I was not able to attend the wedding, as  I lived  out of the country.  But distances never changed our love for one another.  I visited them as often as was possible throughout the remainder of their lives.  They were ‘treasured’ by me and always will be. ,
