We’re very sorry for your loss. We will keep your family in our prayers.
Luetkemeyer Kids & Grandkids: You had one of the best!! I loved Lois as she was always able to put a smile on my face! She helped me in small ways while working at Discovery Place and she will never understand how much that helped me. Prayers for all of you during this difficult time. It’s bad enough to lose one parent, but when the other passes, it’s a whole new ballgame… one I wasn’t ready for when it happened to me. I’m sure the memories you made with your mom will last a lifetime!
