Lois Inden Obituary

It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of Mrs. Lois Marjorie Inden ne. Nelson, of Elgin, IL. on Wed. January 24, 2018 at the age of 91. Lois was born on Oct. 30, 1926 in Chicago Il. to parents Harry and Marjorie Nelson. Lois had a passion for music and was an accomplished opera singer, performing with The American Opera Company, Fine Arts Opera Company, Unity Lutheran Church and The Chicago Park District Opera/Operetta Company where she met and married her one true love, Frederic Inden in 1948. They performed together in Chicago, WI & FL. Lois was a dedicated employee at Wicks Furniture. She was a loving and supportive mother, a caring friend, and a fun-loving, creative individual. Nicknamed "Rockin' Grandma" she was always ready to join in the fun! Lois greeted everyone with a smile. She was a generous soul that befriended, appreciated and accepted everybody! Lois is lovingly remembered by her children and their spouses: Frederic (Rhonda), Ronald (Debra), and Cindi Inden, her sister: Elaine (Chester) Dick, her six grandchildren: Jennifer, Carrie, Christina, Ronald Jr., Nicholas, Henry, her great-grandchildren and family friend Jackie Settipani. She will also be fondly remembered by her numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and dear friends. Lois is preceded in death by her husband, Frederic Inden and her grandson William. A Celebration of Life will be held in spring of 2018.

It is was saddness that we just learned of the passing of your Mom. She will be greatly missed by all. She was so special and her smile and laughter was very contagious. She was Diana and Brian's adoptive grandparents as they were growing up. We will treasure our Christmas celebrations and many family lunches and dinners. We loved her stories of her adventures with Fred and of course many Harpers stories. We were lucky to have her and Fred in our lives and we will continue to remember them with love and affection always.
