Lois and Lloyd moved to Spokane, Washington in June of 1961. All their children were born while they were in Washington, they moved back to Missouri in 1981.
Lois was a homemaker and all it entailed. She and Lloyd liked working in the garden and taking care of flowers. With the grateful help of Lloyd, Lois was always canning items from their large garden. Some of her favorite hobbies were crocheting, macroing, and collecting cookbooks.
In Lois’s later years she took up scrapbooking with her daughters. It was lots of fun for a few years, later Lois let it pass on to her daughters. Lois knew that the love they had enjoyed scrapbooking, the girls would keep scrapbooking their hearts out.
Lois enjoyed listening to music, some of her favorite songs were Amazing Grace, One Day at a Time, and Seven Spanish Angels. Lois also enjoyed spending all the time she could with her grand and great grandchildren.
Per her wishes Lois’s body has been cremated under the care of the Hann Funeral Home, Grant City, Missouri. A Celebration of Life for Lois will be planned at a later date.
Lois will be missed by her family and all who knew her whether you were her friend or a neighbor.
