Lois Louise Shores
ALBION – Lois Louise Shores, 85, passed away on June 12, 2024. Lois was born on August 14, 1938, in Clinton. She was the daughter of Clayton and Marion Hunt.
Lois married Frederick Shores on Jan. 28, 1957. In August 1964 Lois and Fred purchased the Woodbury Farm on the Belfast Road. It is there where they built a beautiful farm and family. They worked tirelessly to raise nine children and expand their farm. Lois loved babies and cared for many children after her own children were grown. Lois was known for her biscuits and loved to cook for her large family. She always said it was a lot of work to raise nine children on a farm, but she loved it and would do it all over again if she could. Lois was a very appreciative person and always made a point to thank those who helped her.
Lois was predeceased by her husband Frederick; son Dennis, daughter-in-law Kimberlee; sisters, Eileen, Thelma, Dorothy, Christine, Beverly and brother David, special sister-in-law Louise; and many other in laws.
She is survived by her sister Marion, sister-in-law Gloria, brothers-in-law Amasa, Allen, Erlon Jr and Danny. She is also survived by her children, Cindy, Karen, Kevin (Alice), Terry, Jeff (Theresa), Laurie (Chris), Billy (Dianne), Amy (Floyd); and grandchildren, Shaun, Spencer, Justin, Corey, Brandon, Jessica, Kristian, Hadassah, Makayla, Rebekah, Grace, Jack, Kera, Cameron, Chase; and 10 Great-grandchildren.
The family would like to thank the kind people who helped care for Lois while she was home and the staff at Lakewood Continuing Care for their comforting care the past several months.
A graveside service will be held on Sunday, June 23 at 1:00 p.m. at the No. 4 Cemetery in Albion. Following the service, the family would like to invite everyone to the Besse Building on Main Street in Albion for a Celebration of Life.
