Lois Jean Williams

Lois "Sunshine" Jean Williams, 73, of Sedalia, MO, passed away peacefully at home on Friday, September 27, 2024. She was born on October 20, 1950, in Sedalia, the daughter of John J. and Mildred G. (Murray) Andrick, who preceded her in death.

Lois was a vibrant soul, always finding joy in her hobbies and interests. She was a devoted family member, as reflected in the extensive collection of photographs that adorned her home. She cherished her time outdoors, nurturing her yard and finding joy in nature. She was a lover of music and dancing and also enjoyed camping, her sons-in-law grilling, and shopping. Cooking brought her immense joy, and she lovingly prepared meals for many, including her colleagues at the bus barn, where she was a proud employee. A strong and proud woman, Lois will be deeply missed by all fortunate enough to know and love her.
