Lois Anna Jackson, 61, a long time resident of Kettle Falls, Washington, passed away at her home, February 21, 2012. She was born on June 11, 1950, the daughter of Gaylord and Edith (Hatfield) Wandling.
Lois was born in Twisp, WA and attended school in Winthrop, WA. In 1966, she moved with her family to Chewelah. There she graduated from Jenkins High School in 1968. A year later she married Asa Jackson and together they raised their three daughters.
She had a great passion for genealogy and spent many hours tracing family history and making many interesting discoveries about the past.
