Members of her family, and many friends, gathered Sunday afternoon in the sanctuary of the United Methodist Church, to participate in “A Memorial Service of Christian Affirmation” for Lois E. Miller. . and to celebrate life. Pastor Jay A. Morris, who spoke briefly on living life as a beautiful song which never ends, stated that Lois began the year 1981 with anew song. Mrs. Miller died December 29, after a year long struggle with cancer, but her friends and family will continue to remember her through the music and paintings she shared, and through experiences recalled. The United Methodist Choir sang one of her compositions, “Sing To The Lord A New Song,” based on Psalm 96. The music was written for the dedication of the new church facilities in 1964. Many persons in the community have also sung Lois’ Christmas Cantata, “God’s Gift of Love,” which was published in 1968. Our church choir sang it during a special program, and I remember how nervous we were because was in the audience. She very graciously complimented us after the service. As one who admired Lois for her musical and artistic talents, I can not speak of her years as a teacher of choral music at Concord and at Wakarusa, or as a choir director for the local Methodist and United Methodist church choirs. 1 also do not know how many persons she helped through her work in therapy at Oaklawn Center, Elkhart, where it is said she used her skills as an artist, and her genuine interest in people to help thers better express and understand their feelings. Herb, then, are some of the things I can remember about Lois E. Millep/instances which stand out in my mind as one who respected her ta|ents, and admired her for sharing them with us. Lois was very active in Nappanee Civic Theatre for a number of years. I remember her as Anna in “The King and I." a role which earned her the first NCT "Oscar." The award was - presented by Don Nichols in 1962 She accepted it while working as musical director for “Oklahoma." another of NCT'S “all-time bests." Before those productions. Lois had worked as musical director for several of NCT’s earliest productions. “Love Rides the Rails.” “The Roaring 20's” and “Girl Crazy." She sang in the chorus, as a nurse, during the NCT production of “South Pacific,” and then came "Music Man,” and she charmed audiences with her portrayal of Marian “the librarian.” 1 ' also remember when hois liecreated her character of Marian during a North Wood choir concert Someone said she was very nervous—but she didn't look, or sound like it She gave a fantastic performance, as always! In 1978., a number of her paintings were on display during a "one-man art show" held at the St Joseph ValleyBank. I talked to her about painting a miniature of a in time for me as a Christmas present. How did she come up with exactly what I wanted? Beats me, but up with a beauty, and it now has a special-place in my mom's home. Lois sponsored another art display, this one for Renee Hill, a local young artist who worked with Lois, and took Isesons with her. IT WAS JUST ONE OF A LONG LIST OF “nice things” Lois did for others. In December, 1979, I talked briefly with Lois, in a‘ lounge at Elkhart General Hospital. She was there for tests, and was in a lot of pain, but she was gracious about putting up with my chatter about enjoying her music and her art—l'm alway uncomfortable in hospitals, and doubt that much of my

conversation was really very helpful to one who was concerned about test results. The year 1980 was one of struggles for Lois and her family and friends. The year 1981 brings with it the joy of knowing her struggles are over, and her “new song” has begun. And, her music and art will be with us for a long, Jong time. Thanks, Lois, for sharing. .

GC art gallery to open fifth show

Paintings atid drawings by Debra Clem will be on display Jan. 5-25 in the Goshen College Art Gallery's fifth show of the 1980-81 season. A native of New Haven, Clem has exhibited her works at various places in ladiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania, most recently in one-woman shows at the Fort Wayne Civic Center and the Indianapolis Art League. The images in Clem's works are all identifiable things, such as plants, furniture and people. However, a reviewer for the Indianapolis Siar noted that “they are spare and uncluttered, stripped of detail and, in a sense, reduced to forms that border on abstraction. Clem's works evoke a dreamy, near surreal elegance that is animated by an emotional and intellectual ambiguity.” To achieve this effect, Clem poses and photographs her models (usually her friends) and then works from the photograph and her imagination to achieve the rnpod she wants.
