Lois Wilson is a lovely lady whose talents are many and her dedication to community service has been a blessing to all who have the privilege of knowing her. Her expertise ranges anywhere from writing to education to public relations. She has written for The Early Bird, The Advocate, Dayton Daily News and County News Online. Her verses have been published in a new release, “Slices of Wry”. 

Lois is well known for her use of poetry to express her love for rhyme and verse. Her poems are of a large variety, some humorous and some serious, so the appeal is to all readers. “Slices of Wry” is the first booklet of what she promises to be a four or five volume set. It contains approximately 50 of her poems. Wilson is offering this booklet to anyone who is willing to help in the Scribes’ endeavor. 

She is a welcome member of Darke County  Senior Scribes which is a not for profit organization dedicated to gathering funds for college scholarships to as many Darke County students as possible each year. To date, over $12,000 has been awarded to Darke County students pursuing careers in public communications. 

One booklet will be given for each sponsorship of $10.00 or more. Sponsorships are tax deductible to the extent allowed according to IRS regulations regarding not-for-profit contributions. 

The booklets are currently available and anyone interested may contact a Scribe member, email Lois at loiswilson@darkecountyseniors.us or call Senior Scribes’ Scholarship Fund President Al Bliss at (937) 548-5687.
