Lois Wilson: Husband
built 229 days ago
In 1951, Lois followed the suggestion made by her husband who had crafted the 12 steps of recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous to create a similar 12 step program for the family and friends of alcoholics. In truth, there had been several family groups around the country that Bill had become aware of and Anne Smith, wife of AA co-founder Dr. Bob, had been involved in working with wives and families from the very beginning.
Mrs. Wilson was supportive of her husband's career and his caretaker after his stroke in 1979. They had three children (Lois, retired; Beth Klepeis, Director of Finance, Town of Reading, MA.; and Edward, Professor of Mathematics, Washington University) and six grandchildren.
