Born in Wood County, she was raised and lived in Wayne until moving to the Chattanooga, Tennessee, area in 2002.

She is survived by her children of which she was a devoted and loving mother to, sons, Michael (Debbie) Byers and Gary (Sherry) Byers, both of Ligonier, Indiana, David (Barb) Lippert of Wayne, and Joel (Debbie) Lippert of St. Charles, Illinois; daughter, daughter, Lisa (Philip) Hyman of Chattanooga, Tennessee; 12 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; and siblings, Irene Althaus of Tiffin, Sharon Fisher, of Orlando, Florida, and Kenneth "Eugene" (Doreen) Ault of Wayne.

Lois loved to read, plant flowers, and travel. She was a hard worker and dedicated employee. This started in high school at a local dime store and continued to do so until her retirement at age 87. Working places such as Hawthorn Melody Ice Cream, Cain's Potato Chips, and back to her real passion of retail when she started working as a cashier at Bowling Green Walmart before transferring to Soddy Daisy Walmart. She loved talking to her customers and coworkers as many of them became part of her extended family. Her family often joked that she was a local "celebrity" as people came up to talk to Lois from Walmart wherever she went. One of her proudest accomplishments was the work ethic that she passed to her children and grandchildren.
