Lois Karst 1936 - 2022 Lois Doreen Karst (Kyle) born 29 November 1936, passed away Saturday, September 17, 2022 at the Lampman Community Health Centre. Lois was predeceased by her husband, Lynn, brother Jack Kyle, and sister Betty Mirwald. Lois is survived by her son, Dale Karst (friend Dorothy), daughter Karen (Doug) Percival, granddaughter Celestine (Corey) Van Engelan, grandson Cole (Nikki) Karst, granddaughter Jenny Wiggett, grandson Andrew (Princess) Percival, great grandkids, Hadley, Lincoln, Emelia and Emerie. Lois had been an employee with Sask Power for many years prior to her retirement. She enjoyed visiting with their neighbours along McLeod Avenue, as well as visiting with old friends, work colleagues or farmers whose land Lynn may have drilled on. In her younger days, Lois played softball, basketball and coached women's basketball. Lynn and Lois travelled to see the Minnesota Twins and also attended the Grey Cup in Vancouver after Lois won tickets! They loved to travel to new places and every trip was a new adventure. They had many dogs over the years, and when the last one went over the rainbow bridge she said it was as hard as if they had lost a child! That's how big of a part their dogs played in their lives. Lois would pass out dog treats when she saw any of their neighbours walking their dogs along her back alley. Just as Lynn was always cooking up something to share with friends, Lois enjoyed baking carrot cakes to take to different friends and businesses in Estevan. Lois moved to Creighton Lodge after Lynn passed away, and then moved to Lampman, where she passed away after a few tough years battling Alzheimer's.
