Lori Miland Obituary

Lori Lynn Miland, born April 16, 1961, to Phillip and Marlene Stevens in Eau Claire, WI passed away December 12, in her home.

Lori graduated from Memorial High School in 1979 and married Jeff Miland in 1980. For the past 27 years she worked at Menards headquarters in Eau Claire. 

Lori loved to garden and have her hands in the dirt. She enjoyed planting vegetables in her early years and loved canning anything she could harvest from the garden. In her later life, she enjoyed planting flowers and watching the birds on her porch. She loved all her dogs over the years and always had a companion to keep her company. Halloween was her favorite holiday, and she always got a kick out of Halloween mischief. 

Lori is survived by her husband, Jeff; son, Austin (Katy) Miland; son, Mike Miland; sister, Sue (Butch) Pinkert; brother, Mike (Martie) Stevens; and brother-in-law, Tom Anderson. She is also survived by her mother-in-law, Janice Miland; grandchildren, Mason and Lia Miland; as well as several nieces, nephew and friends.

Lori was preceded in death by her mother and father; father-in-law, Neil Miland; and her beloved sister, Cheryl Anderson.

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, February 15, 2025, from 1-4 p.m. at Chippewa Valley Cremation Services – Celebration of Life Center, 1717 Devney Drive, Altoona.
