I loved aunt Lois dearly, when I was a small little boy she called me her baby. When I went to visit her in 1997 and 2007 she still called her 61 year old nephew baby. Aunt Lois was the sweetest person I ever knew, she always had a smile and a kind word for anyone she ever met,stranger or friend. She made a 5 year old boys day when she took him on a bus to Asheville and at the 5$dime store told him he could have anyone of the little toy cars that he wanted. My wife says the rest is hist0ry, the little boy is still playing with cars. There are so many fond memories of Lois and the entire Medford clan that it would take a book to write all of the stories. Lois truely loved them all and showed that in their relationships. We were all blessed by her in very special ways. We will all miss her, but she has rejoined her family with the the eternal peace of God as her assurance. May God give the family the peace that passeth all understanding. May God be with you all, love Richard and Barbara Penland .
