They had two daughters and later divorced in 1982. they remained friends as he would buy the groceries and she would cook. She loved to cook and would feed all of us at any given time.
She also enjoyed watching her grandchildren play sports. Softball was her favorite as she an avid player, even playing in the state tournament with the “Sunshine Girls”. She also enjoyed watching baseball and the World Series and was a big fan of rodeos.
She loved to be outdoors working and gardening. She always had an immaculate yard and house and expected her girls to have the same, and if we didn’t we would sure hear about it. She was never afraid to voice her opinion and everyone always knew where they stood with Lois. She was a very outspoken, stubborn lady even up until her passing.
