In 2011 Lois moved to Oregon. During her time in Oregon she could be spotted out dancing, swimming or playing cards. She rarely missed her grandkids sporting events. As the years passed she was also able to enjoy time with her eight great grandchildren here in Oregon and Olathe, Kansas.
Lois made friends wherever she went and was always up for new adventures. She loved to travel with friends and family. She often reminded us that “she left no stone unturned”.
Lois was loved by many. She always “felt that she had a guardian angel”. Her loved ones now feel they have a guardian angel of their own. She will be missed dearly.
