It is a total Shock to my family to hear of the passing of a Great and caring Woman Dr. Solace Lotsu. Dr. Lotsu was our two Daughters Doctor since Birth, Justine 11 & Devin 9. She would always be there when we needed her. Very caring and thoughtful to us and all of our Children. She Became part of our Family. Our Prayers go out to the Lotsu Family and all the Children & Families that she has touched. She WILL BE GREATLY MISSED & NEVER REPLACED.

Dr Lotsu was my friend it was my desire for her to be my doctor until she could no longer work. She told me that she was praying to see me in the board room. I long to see her now. I am lost without her, yet I know she is with Jesus. To her family I say I can only imagine what it must be like for you because for me it is like I have lost a member of my family. A member like my grandmother one with wisdom and humor. God Bless you and keep your all....Charles Albert T. (age 14).

To The Family Of Our Dear Friend and Doctor....

Dr Lotsu is a friend and confidante..Lord, I don't know how we will ever be able to find someone who was as kind and compassionate.

She truly loved our son and made him feel so comfortable. My son who is now 14 was and is so serious about everything she once said (when he was about 4 years of age), "I pray that I will live to see him in the BOARD ROOM truly he is going to be somebody. (I do pray now her prayers will be answered and that her spirit will be around our son as he succeeds throughout his life).

Just recently (November 2004) we discussed Charles' desire to play football for the NFL...It was my son's desire for Dr Lotsu to be his doctor as he

moves forward in his quest to be a football player. He had told his Dad and I that he would not trust another doctor as he did Dr Lotsu and his hope was for her to be with him as he succeeded (just as she said he would). When we told Dr Lotsu of this she smile and laughed and spoke in her wonderful dialect "Can we do that right now."

I found out Friday February 18, 2005 that our dear friend and doctor was gone...as I was calling to ask for her help. My son had a fever of 104 and I didn't know what to do. I took him to the emergency room at Rush North Shore Hospital...I told my son before we left for the hospital that his precious Dr Lotsu was gone. He cried.He is devastated..My son is at such a loss and so are we (my husband, father and sister)she has meant so much to us and we don't know what to do without her. Where do we turn to find such a wonderful person and doctor as she????

To her family we say that she is truly gone to be with her God...We hope that you can know and believe that ALL of her patients loved her more than life. We pray for you that God will give you peace that surpasses all understanding...We KNOW BEYOND A SHADOW OF DOUBT THAT SHE IS WITH GOD.

To those of you who don't know God...Try Jesus.....

We LOVE YOU DR. LOTSU....

I would like to send my deepest sympaty to Dr. Lotsu's family and to all that was touched by the most caring doctor that I've known. She was the best doctor to my three little ones, she has been with us since all of their births. My daughter is already having a hard time knowing that she cannot see HER doctor. She will be missed. God Bless her. Always.

It was quite a shock to hear of the loss of Dr. Lotsu. She has been our pediatrician for 16 years. She actually, "met," our oldest daughter while I was pregnant. She was also a co-worker/friend of my mother's, Mrs. Luella Wesol, who worked at Augustana Hospital with her. My mother referred us to her, citing her expertise and wonderful caring attitude. We were not disappointed! Dr. Lotsu was not only a excellent pediatrician, but also a wonderful person. My children, Kristina and Samantha, have grown to love her over the years. We will miss her dearly! Our condolences to her family and friends. Please know that she, and her family, are in our hearts and prayers. She will be remembered...

Dr. Lotsu, you were truly a very special and wonderful woman. Our family was truly saddened by the news of your sudden passing. You took such special care of my son, Jaime R. Delgado, for the past 9 1/2 yrs (since he was a month old). Our family will never forget the comfort of knowing that our son was always safe in your care. A special doctor/pediatrician such as you can never be replaced. Thank you so very much for being the person that you were. May you rest in peace in heaven. May your family find peace and comfort in knowing how much you were loved and touched by so many people.



Our deepest sympathies to your family,

Dr. Lotsu, you will certainly be missed by not only our children (Max and Charlene, who are now teenagers) but by our entire family. You are a part of our family, the children have been with you since they were born (20 years). Every milestone, birthday and graduation, we wanted you to have a picture. Thank you for being there when we needed you the most. Now it is time for you to rest in heaven. You will always remain in our hearts. I don't think we will ever find another doctor as good as you. God bless your family.
