Lois Jean Brewer
August 20, 1937 — June 25, 2015
Lois Jean Brewer, 77, of Alum Creek entered into her eternal rest on Thursday, June 25, 2015 with family and loved ones by her side. She was the daughter of the late James Early and Dona Peters of Bald Knob, WV. She was also preceded in death by her sister, Eileen Bradford; and brothers, Dean, Dallas and Arlie Peters.
Lois was a vibrant and passionate lady. She truly loved life and lived it to its fullest. To those who knew her, the one word that personified Lois was love. She loved her family and friends, animals and babies and her West Virginia Mountaineers. She was blest to marry her soul mate and life partner, Eugene Brewer 31 years ago. The two of them gave meaning to the term “Golden Years.” Lois and Eugene traveled the world, touring the United States on their Harley Davidson, taking cruises with family and friends, wintering in South Florida but always returning home to the mountain state of WV. She was a member of the Bald Knob Methodist Church, an active member of her Van High School Reunion Committee, a leading member of a motorcycle riding group she affectionately referred to as the “Retreads.” Lois was a caregiver, a homemaker, an excellent cook who could put Julia Child to shame and beloved wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend.
She is survived by her loving husband, Eugene Brewer, former publisher of the Lincoln Newspapers.; daughters, Melissa Wilms (Camille) and Jean Ann Johnson (Craig); two beautiful granddaughters, Morgan Wilms and Morgan Johnson also known as “Big Morgan and Little Morgan”; sisters, Iva Workman and Opal Pennington; and brothers, Denzil Peters (Ida) and Arney Peters (Thelma); as well as a host of cousins, nephews, nieces and dear friends.
