Dear Susan and Deborah
Words can't describe how much your mom meant to me. She was a friend and mentor, a person I respected and who in part made me the person I am today. She never expected me to accept second place, and for that alone, one would say thank you, but coupled with her friendship and knowledge I became the man I am today.
While time and miles kept us apart, her words, training and warmth were always part of me. 47 years ago I walked into an office, and this lady showed me what I was expected to do, three days later, that same woman (who at time, I told friends man she is a tough cookie) asked me if I wanted to call her Lois or Mrs. Rounds, still nervous, I said miss Lois! Here's to Miss Lois, thank you for being part of my life.
