Lois's life was one marked by deep love and commitment to her family. She was a devoted wife to her husband, Kenneth Shields, with whom she shared countless cherished moments and an enduring partnership. As a mother to her daughter, Diana Waggoner, and sons, Ronnie and Michael Cauley, Lois instilled values of kindness, resilience, and the importance of a good laugh.

Lois's Christian faith was a cornerstone of her existence. She leaned on the Lord through life's challenges and triumphs, finding solace and strength in her belief. Her faith was as much a part of her as her infectious laughter and her talent for crafting beautiful poetry that touched the hearts of those fortunate enough to hear her words.

An avid fisher, Lois relished the tranquility of nature and the thrill of the catch. Her love for reading transported her to countless worlds, while her fondness for watching old comfort shows on TV provided endless hours of joy and relaxation.

Her legacy is one of love, laughter, and faith-a legacy that will continue to inspire and guide her family and friends.

As the sun sets on Lois's earthly journey, her spirit remains a guiding light for those she leaves behind. Her beloved dog, Cheyenne, will miss her gentle touch and kind voice, but like all who loved Lois, will carry the memory of her love forever.

Lois Faye Shields will be deeply missed, yet her spirit will continue to live on through the lives she touched and the love she gave. Her family finds comfort in knowing that she rests now in the loving embrace of the Lord, her faith having led her home.
