I am truly sorry for your loss. Lois was a beloved by the students at Curry College, especially those in the Curry College Theatre Department. My prayers and thoughts are with your family. I will truly miss Lois and seeing her smiling face, whether in front role at a Curry Theatre play or walking into Drapkin and seeing her there.
“I pray today with my candle lit for Mimi’s spirit and may she rest in peace with the Lord. I know she is in heaven. I hope I can cope, and she felt my love, because in her last few days I was but two hours away! It makes me sick all over to think she is gone. No more games, and no more songs. She would sing me to sleep and rub my back, no matter what my faults were.
Mimi, I thank you so much for your unconditional love. I felt it in your hugs and now I feel it from up above. Thankfully, I have precious memories and mental pictures of how your smile could illuminate the State, and how your melodic laughter’s contagious power, could transform a room into a den of warmth and happiness. I love you Mimi. Katie
Peter, We are sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Katie,
You were only 18 months old when I met you and your beloved Mimi at the Curry Day Care Center. She brought so much happiness to all she met and she will be truly missed by us all at Curry.
My deepest sympathy to you, your dad and your entire family.

Julie,
I am sorry about your mom’s loss. I loved the story you shared
with us about her bathing cap and how she loved to swim in your
pool. You stated it is hung on the post.
I’m sure she is smiling down on you as you keep her memory
alive and think about her happiness wearing that cap.
Just think now she is in heaven running through waterfalls without
any restrictions of health and or needing a bathing cap.
I am praying for you that each day brings you the faith that she is
gone on to a better place. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Theresa
