Lois V Meier

Our mom, Grandma Tutu, passed on September 22 and went to be with our dad, Ron, who passed away in 2017 and our sister, Barb, who passed away in 2018. Barb’s last words were that her job in heaven will be to welcome everyone when they get to heaven. With so many friends and relatives in heaven, we are sure she’s loved reconnecting with them and will be excited to see mom again to welcome her through the gates.

Lois was born on August 31, 1932 to Forrest and Cora Cochran on a farm in Iowa. The family moved in 1943 to the family farm in Melbeta where she graduated high school in 1950. She then went to college in Denver and returned to begin her career with Kramer Motors. She married Ron Meier and they had 4 girls.

She is survived by her girls Bev (Terry) Dishman of Tennessee, Rhonda (Jay) Templar of Gering/Blair, and Brenda (Rod) Loose of Mitchell; her grandkids Dave (Kris) Dishman of Florida, Dawn (Greg) Street of Tennessee, Jadie (Dan) Beam of Gering, Trevor (Melissa) Templar of Blair, Brady (Sarah) Loose of Mitchell, Brant (Michelle) Loose of Auburn; 14 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren; her sisters Rowena Labertew and Joann Corr, sister-in-law Marge Cochran, brother Dean Cochran, and many nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband Ron and daughter Barb, her parents, sister-and brother-in-law Jean and Ralph Vogel, brother Junior Cochran, brother-in-laws Merle Labertew and Jack Corr, and sister-in-law Judie Cochran.
