Lola will be greatly missed by her friends at Royal Gorge Manor and her friends and caregivers at Progressive Care Center.  She loved talking with others about many experiences over the last 98 years! We all will miss her quick wit, her wisdom and her fiery personality that she would say came from being a red head.
