Lois was also adventuresome. Lois and Bud spent a lifetime traveling and exploring whenever they could. Whether it be with their children, other family members or friends, they both knew how to experience life. Driving to Florida and Kansas from Dalhousie before interstate highways, visiting Yugoslavia, Spain and almost every village and pub in the United Kingdom were some of the highlights of their wanderlust. Besides being a full time professional, Lois was an inspired chef and entertaining hostess. Many a Christmas and Holiday dinner included several dozen family, neighbors newly acquired friends.

She was an avid reader in her earlier years and quite readily was prepared to offer an opinion on almost any subject.

Her son John Appleby, his wife Jennifer and their son Keegan of Colchester CT. She is also survived by her brother Michael Sherar, his wife Elizabeth of Halifax, and their son Brent his wife Misty of Houston TX, and her brother in law Alden Appleby, his wife Noella of Dalhousie NB and their daughters Luce and Lucie of Halifax N.S.
