Thank you, Russell and Tina Boyd of Quapaw, for being such great friends to mom and dad. Thank you for watching over them and for all of your help! Lois Jean and Pat were long-time members of the Cardin and Quapaw Christian churches. They both graduated from Picher High School in 1948. Soon after graduating, Lois took a job with Southwestern Bell as a switch board operator. She later worked for Grants and TG&Y in Miami, OK for 9 years. However, her passion was to be a homemaker and she centered her life around her kids and grandkids. She taught Sunday school classes at both Cardin and Quapaw. Pat worked at some kind of job for most of his ninety years of life. He began work delivering groceries in Hockerville and Picher at the age of 12. While in high school, he worked at the Ice Plant in Picher, OK, delivering ice throughout the community. Pat played football for the Picher Gorillas, and was the quarterback for the 1947-48 campaigns. After graduation, Pat spent some time in California before landing a job in Roseburg, OR at a lumber mill. He married the love of his life; Lois, in 1950. After almost 4 years in Roseburg, Pat and Lois moved back to Picher, OK. In 1963, as the family continued to grow, they bought a bigger house and moved to Quapaw where they lived until their death. Pat retired at the age of 55 from Sperry Rand Vickers. Pat and Lois spent five years traveling together before Pat ended his retirement and returned to work in the sporting goods department at WalMart in Miami, and later worked for the Ottawa County Assessor’s Office. Pat understood the value of hard work, loyalty and faithfulness. Lois loved her family greatly, and there was no sacrifice that she wouldn’t make for her loved ones. Pat and Lois lived their lives richly, and their love for others was rewarded by a heritage of family and friends who loved them dearly. They will be greatly missed. After almost seventy years of marriage together and loving a long, fruitful life on this earth, Pat and Lois are now together in Heaven, reunited with beloved family members who have gone before. Pat has probably found some odd jobs to do outside, and Lois is likely preparing a home-cooked meal, where she may or may not be adding some extra sugar and salt to the pot! Services will be held 2:00 pm Monday, November 30, 2020 at the First Christian Church in Miami, Oklahoma. The family will receive relatives and friends from 1:00 pm Monday, November 30, 2020 till service time. Officiating will be William Robert Harryman Interment will follow at G.A.R. Cemetery under the direction of the Paul Thomas Funeral Home and Cremation Service of Miami, Oklahoma.
