Nelson, Lois E.
Lois E. Nelson, age 87, went home to be with the Lord on Thursday, July 28, 2016 surrounded by her loving family at her residence.
She was born on December 19, 1928 in Manitowoc, daughter of the late Frank George and Laurine (Christenson) Johnson. Lois graduated from Manitowoc Lincoln High School in June of 1947. She was employed at Erdman Ford until she married Wallace F. Nelson on May 19, 1951 in Manitowoc. Wallace was the son of the late Dewey & Anita (Witte) Nelson of Kewaunee. She then dedicated her life happily to being a homemaker. Lois was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She enjoyed cooking, baking and taking care of her flowers. Her most valued and treasured time was spent with family and friends. No one could top her German potato salad, chicken noodle soup, poppy seed torte, rhubarb torte, homemade fudge and frosted Christmas cookies. Nothing was better than her angel food birthday cakes made with love and topped off with her homemade frosting. Lois put everyone first before herself.
Survivors include two sons and their spouses: Rickey W. & Patti L. Nelson, Two Rivers, Robert L. & Robin G. Nelson, Manitowoc; three grandchildren: Amy L. (Ryan) Bauer, Two Rivers, Danielle M.
