Lois Elaine Steen was born on July 29, 1939, to Albertha and Fenley Cook Jr. in Naples, Idaho. Lois passed away peacefully in her home in Sandpoint, Idaho, on May 29, 2020, at the age of 80.

Memorial services will be conducted at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 17, 2023, in the McArthur Cemetery off Highway 95. A potluck will follow at the home of Scott Steen, 2611 Selkirk Road. Please join the family to show your support.

Lois was a true local; she was born in Naples, Idaho, where she grew up and met her first husband, Jimmie Jensen. Lois and Jim started their family in Elmira, Idaho, and they had three children together: Susan (Ira) Owens, Robert Jensen, and Thomas (Becky) Jensen. Lois and Jim later purchased a home and moved their family to Sandpoint. Sadly, Jim passed away, leaving behind Lois and their three children.

Lois later met her second husband, Alvin Steen, and added two more children to the family: Scott Steen and Kim (Rich) Calvart.

Lois had many joys in her life. She enjoyed family and friends, get-togethers, yard sales, embroidery, ceramics, reading, bingo, huckleberry picking and much more. Lois worked at Lightning Lube for her friends, Gene and Gloria Holt, for many years, which she really enjoyed. Her co-workers, along with the regulars who came in, were like family to her, and she thoroughly enjoyed visiting with them all.

Lois leaves behind many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, sisters, brothers and friends. She will be missed, but not forgotten.

Final arrangements are being handled by Coffelt Funeral Service.
