Lois Elaine Edelbrock June 29, 1957-September 3, 2018 Lois Elaine Edelbrock, 61, passed away in a tragic accident on September 3, 2018. Lois was born on June 29, 1957 in Miles City, MT to Randall and Virginia Carey, moving to the Seattle area at the age of 3. In 1963 the family moved to Mountlake Terrace, WA where she attended Mountlake Terrace schools and graduated in 1975. During her last few years of high school she worked as a box girl at Safeway, continuing as a checker until she became a mom. On November 1, 1975 she married the love of her life, Michael B. Edelbrock, and they would have celebrated 43 years of marriage this November. As a little girl she would tell the neighbors she was going to have three boys, she got her bonus first, Jessi. They became the parents of Jessi, Boyd, Kyle and Wade, who have blessed them with nine grandchildren, Madeline, Lane, Kody, Reese, Lacy, Hank, Kaci, Kate and Chase. Lois enjoyed a happy life that was fueled by being a mom and grandma. She was like an Energizer Bunny, always cooking, cleaning, babysitting, exercising, cutting hair, sewing, gardening and decorating. Running up to their cabin in the winter, riding snowmobiles, going on family camping trips and traveling, were all things she loved. The only thing she didn't like was shopping. Mike and Lois started Mickelo in 1983, they worked together and built it up to become a successful commercial construction company still running today. Lois was classy, always put together, she was an organizer, putting on a last-minute dinner, throwing together a birthday or anniversary party. Her smile will live in our hearts forever, she was funny with her words of wisdom. Words cannot describe how much she will be missed. She is survived by husband, Mike; daughter, Jessi; and sons, Boyd (Joni), Kyle (Jenn), Wade (Courtney); grandchildren, Madeline, Lane, Kody, Reese, Lacy, Hank, Kate, Chase; (Kaci perished in the same accident as her grandma); siblings, Carol, Ron (Teresa), Darrald (Jackie), Jennie (Corey); and numerous nieces and nephews; mother, Virginia Carey. A Celebration of Life will be held on October 26, 2018 from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Hollywood School House, 14810 NE 145th St, Woodinville, WA 98072
