~Lois Taylor~
YOAKUM: Lois Mae (Brenek) Taylor, age 88, left all the suffering and pain of this temporary world, and entered eternally into the loving arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Monday, April 14, 2025. She always knew and believed there to be a place for her in his eternal love and light because she praised him without fail. She can now finally rest and be by his side eternally. Lois was born March 10, 1937 in Sweet Home to James and Katherine Brenek. As a girl she would help her family pick cotton and Charleston Grey watermelons. As an adult she loved canning, gardening and watching Fox News. From a younger adult all the way into her 50's and 60's, she worked many places, to many to list them all as there wasn't much she couldn't do. She worked at the bus station back when Yoakum had one, Meals on Wheels delivering fresh prepared hot meals to seniors in the Yoakum area and then for Tandy Brands in their belt assembly department. She always loved to sit out in the yard or on the porch in the evenings when the breeze would blow and talk with the Lord as well as her grandkids and all their friends. Every morning she'd sit at the kitchen table very early before anyone else was up, when it was dark outside and drink her instant coffee and read her bible. Her bible had so many scribbles, notes and highlights that only she could read the actual text anymore. The only bottled water she'd drink was Ozarka. Survivors: grandsons, Leonard Lopez (Rebecca) and Shawn David Lopez (Alexandra); great-grandchildren from Shawn and Alex--Emily, Baylie, Samuel, Spencer and Silas & great-grandchildren from Leonard and Rebecca--Autumn and Jordyn; sister, Hattie Kvinta and her family. Preceded in death by: parents; husband O.C. Taylor; daughter, Sandy Worden; son, Mike Williams; grandson, Joshua Worden; sisters, Nannie Power and Betty Fitch; brother, Franklin Brenek. Graveside service 3:00 p.m. Wednesday, April 16, 2025 at Yoakum Oak Grove Cemetery. The family wants to thank everyone who was involved in Lois' life in a positive way. She loved us all and forever will. Arrangements by Thiele-Cooper Funeral Home 361-293-5656. |
