Being the people person she was the involvement brought
her much satisfaction.
Loye was always busy doing things as a member. No matter
what the event, she could be baking, writing a poem,
thinking up a simple game for meetings, crocheting an afghan
serving tea, doing dishes; she was enjoying doing it.

others. Belonging to the Women's Institute, Botha Seniors
Activity Club, UCW, or discing, was a bonus socializing.
There should be more people such as she., her smile, with
twinkling eyes is no exaggeration. They were plentiful
and honestly given with a hug and most often a kind word.
If anyone asked Loye what have her strength and determi
in living " The love of family and friends" would
be her response.
