Lois T. Armstrong
June 3, 1920 — May 18, 2024
Lois T. Armstrong died May 18, 2024, in Winter Park, Florida at the age of 103. All three of her sons Wally (Debbie), Tom, and Bill (Kathy) as well as two longtime friends were present at her bedside.
Lois was born in Davenport, Iowa on June 3rd, 1920, was married in Chicago in 1941 and moved to Indiana in 1954 where she raised her three sons with her husband Walter, who preceded her in death in 1981. She moved from Indian Lake in Lawrence, Indiana to the Orlando,
Florida area in 1986. Lois had 8 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren, one of whom (Clara) preceded her in death in 2016.
Lois will be cremated in Florida and will be interned in the Washington East Cemetery, Indianapolis alongside Walter. A celebration of life will be planned in Winter Park, Florida and also in Indianapolis at a date to be determined later.
Lois was a Christian woman who loved everyone and was loved by all whose lives were touched by her.
May she continue with her non-stop flittering about in heaven.
MOM
May 18, 2024
Mom died today,
with her three sons and wives
and two close friends by her side.
A life lived long,
nearly a 104.
She loved all
and all loved her.
A great big heart went up to heaven today.
Sister to 3,
mother to 3,
grandmother to many,
great grandmother to many more.
A non-stop filterer.
A dragonfly across the lake,
a hummingbird at a feeder,
a beautiful butterfly visiting many flowers,
a busy bee gathering honey,
sweet and loving.
Memories of goodness,
memories of fun,
memories of kisses, gentle backrubs and “hugs around the neck”.
A life well lived.
A fisher woman,
a golfer woman,
a rummy cube player,
a Domino expert,
a crocheter of things (who knows what they were?)
a saver of pictures old and new.
Will be missed by all of us,
here on earth.
Resting now with Jesus,
but soon, I'm sure,
she will flitter to the edges of heaven and back.
Son Bill.
