Lois owned and operated the Eagle Bend Truck Stop for several years prior to her retirement.

When alone, she watched Minnesota Twins baseball and crocheted hot pads that were given as gifts and offered for sale for fund raisers.
Her faith in God sustained her throughout her life and she was known as a prayer warrior and loved to read the Bible and other inspirational books.
The pallbearers are Timothy Olson, Steven Steiner, Dan Schermerhorn, David Simar, Marvin Simar, Burton Simar.
Burial will be in Maple Cemetery, Eagle Bend, MN.
