Aunt Lolita, my favorite Aunt. Loving and caring. A beautiful lady, inside and out. She knew how to enjoy life, and wishing her family to enjoy all the good memories, knowing she was loved by all. When I think of her I smile. She will always hold a special place in my heart.

Lolita was the most caring and loving godmother anyone could ever ask for. I loved her very much, she was always so kind and considerate to everyone. I have a lifetime of wonderful heart full of memories shared with her, including my godfather Ralph and her second husband Dan. I spent many years visiting them in Tomahawk. My husband Jimmy and I shared numerous Friday Fish Fry's together in Tomahawk. She was one of my mothers best friends and the fabulous times they had when all the girls got together for Club! What a cherished life, I will miss Lolita dearly.
