Lois was predeceased by her parents, her husband, Bob, and her brother Odia Leroy Hammack, Jr, who died in childhood and was known to Lois as “Little Peachy.”
Survivors include her daughter, Roberta (Haugh) Bennight, and her husband, Benny Bennight; her grandson Robert Lee Bennight, and his wife, Kathryn Whitney; and her great-grandson, Benjamin Bennight. All live in Phillipsburg, KS.
