The life of Lois

This wasn’t the first stroke that Lois had suffered. Her first stroke reportedly left her with months of rehabilitation. Lisa had noted that she wasn’t the same as she once was but they were grateful to have her.

Lois also survived a terrible encounter per People. The report stated that Lois was attacked in 1960 by the Trailside Killer David Carpenter. He was a serial killer and rapist who murdered at least 10 people.

Lisa had previously commented on the attack saying, “A few years before I was born, my mom was attacked by a man that she worked with.” She continued, “He picked her up at the bus stop and then all of sudden he started to drive her down this really deserted road. He tried to rape her. He tried to kill her. Luckily, a military policeman had seen them drive down this deserted road and he knew no one was supposed to be down there and he followed them down. My mom was saved that day by that military policeman.”

Lois had also previously commented on the attack. She said the man was straddling her and had a hammer in one hand and a knife in the other.

Through the years, Lois and Lisa have remained very close. The two spent a year apart during the pandemic. They were able to reunite when Lois turned 93 this past June.

RIP Lois.
