Passed away comfortably and peacefully with family by her side on Wednesday, January 4, 2023 at the age of 71.
Cherished and devoted wife of Graham for 52 years. Loving mom to Kelly (Dan). Proud Grandma of Abigaile and Maddison. Lois has now gone to be reunited with her parents Alan and Violet Ross and her siblings Bruce and Carol (Albert). Daughter-in-law of the late Lucien and Euphrezene. Dear sister-in-law of the late Kenneth (Eileen), Dennis (Mary), late Richard, David, Marlene (Duane), Lucille (Rick), and Denise (Pete). Lois will be missed and fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Lois was liked by all and a friend to many. Her family always came FIRST and regardless of the challenges she faced Lois always had an open door, listening ear and a smile that was genuine and warm. She was very proud to have received her diploma at Sault College for Hairstylist/Barber later in her life and enjoyed several years of creating many friendships along the way. Lois had a passion for baking and would most often have goodies to offer her guests. She loved to garden and enjoyed spending her summer making sure her garden was perfect. She was a fighter and would always show strength and courage as she gracefully handled many struggles during her life.
A Celebration of Life for Lois will take place in the spring. Memorial contributions (payable by cheque or online) SSM- Humane Society or ARCH would be greatly appreciated. The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff at Sault Area Hospital and Extendicare Van Daele - Convalescent Program and a special thank you to Dr. Booth and Nurse Erica in ICU for all of their kind and compassionate care. Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.arthurfuneralhome.com for the LaHaie family.
