Lois passed away Thursday, January 3, 2013 in Claremore Nursing home at the age of 77.

The daughter of Sherman and Irene Hill Rogers was born May 13, 1935 in her family's home near Oologah. As a young girl she and her family moved several times, looking for work during the depression. She lived in places such as California, Oregon and Arkansas. In the late 1950's she moved to Oklahoma. However she didn't stay long after four short years she moved back to California. There she began working, until she decided to make Oklahoma her permanent home. She settled in the Claremore area. Over the next few years she worked primarily taking care of her family, but she did work a short time for the Hesston corporation in Claremore and the Collinsville nursing home. In her spare time she loved to dance, and cook. She was known to always put other people needs before her own, and nothing was more important to her than her family.

She is preceded in death by her son Allen Zincke, and brother Bob Rogers.

Survivors include her children, Debbie Davis and husband Bill of Claremore, and Vicky Zincke and husband Paul Horner of Chelsea; grandchildren, Brandi Dunn and husband Johnie of Foyil, Michael Zincke and wife Melonie of Foyil, Tammy Keys and husband Mikel of Alvardo, TX, Jennifer Riggs of Tulsa and Michelle Sepulveda of Claremore, and Jackie Sargent and husband Bryan of Chelsea; and great-grandchildren, Emily Dunn, Zachary Dunn, Amber Zincke, Shelby Shrier, Adam Shrier, Amanda Lesperance, Tara Sepulveda, Cora Keys, Mikey Keys, Victoria Keys, Josh Sumrall, Mattie Sargent, Lexie Sargent, and Brylee Sargent.
