I’m very sad to hear the news of Lois passing away. I have wonderful memories of her from my childhood in Cape Town. To this day think of her every time I dive into the ocean for a swim because it was Lois, who took me by the hand as a terrified 5 year old, plunged into the ocean with me and taught me the joy of the beach. Other happy memories include holidays at Herolds Bay, the warmth of hospitality in the Lan household including swimming in the pool on a hot Cape Town day, coming over for dinner to view the start of TV in South Africa and meeting up in London for lunch in 1989. I will be thinking of you all on July 2, which coincidentally is the anniversary of my barmitzvah in Cape Town in 1977, from which only one gift remains, the wonderful set of binoculars that Joe and Lois gave to me on that occasion. With sympathy and love on your loss, from Adam Futeran and Mom and Dad ( Les and Rose ) in Sydney Australia.
