February 11, 2019 at 6:17 amThere are some people who are just plain irreplaceable. Everyone is unique and leaves an impression on others. But Lois Linton left a mark that will be impossible to erase in the hearts of so very many people. She truly invested herself in her family, her community and her nation. Strong and capable of so many things she was able to lead the charge and then double back to make sure that those in the rear were tended to and didn’t falter. For over four decades I cherished her friendship, her feisty adventures, and her honesty. She’s with our sweet Jesus now. And I miss her dearly.

We are so sorry to hear that a great woman and Republican leader has passed on. She did so very much to further conservative principles and Christian education. We are grateful for her life which she shared will us all.
