GARY KROIS Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 24, 2025.
Gary Robert Krois, 75, of Woodland WA, passed away on May 30th, 2025. He was born on July 7, 1949 in Palo Alto, CA to Richard Ignatius Krois and Imogene Delores Kaiser.

Gary was a hardworking man and worked various jobs before going to work at Fleetwood Homes in Woodland WA as a supervisor. He worked there for 35 years before the plant closed in 2010. Gary was a master woodworker all his life. He had a true passion for wood and could make anything anyone asked him to, it was a true gift. Gary also loved fishing any chance he had and later in life could be found at Merwin dropping a line in the water. He was a strong caring man who loved his family and would always be there when needed.

Gary is preceded in death by his mother and father, his brothers Richard Krois and Tom Krois. He is survived by his wife Tony (Wilson) Krois, his daughter Dawn Krois, Sister Jean Krois, grandchildren Katie Cerdena, Maddy Retchless and Caleb Boyce and two beautiful great grandchildren Phoebe and Elijah.

There will be a celebration of life on August 23rd from 2:00 to 4:00 at the Oak Tree in Woodland WA. All are welcome. Please bring stories and memories to share.
