Lois Greenrod

Lois Elaine (Woertman) Greenrod was born June 23rd, 1943 and passed away on June 4th,  2017. Lois was born the fourth of six children to Carl and Elizabeth Woertman. She was educated in a Catholic school and continued to practice her religion throughout her life. Lois enjoyed bookkeeping in high school and used that skill through many jobs throughout the years. In January of 1965 she married Gary Greenrod of Denver. They moved to California where shortly after they had their first son, Kenneth. Within the year they had moved to Michigan and soon came Debbie and Matthew. Her hands were full with a three, a two and a one-year old. With three young children they returned to Colorado and moved around many times raising the children in the mountains of Colorado. In 1978, Gary came home and informed Lois they were moving to American Falls to be near friends where they finished rearing their children throughout their middle school and high school years. Lois was employed with the city of American Falls for many years. Encountering the loss of their first son, Kenneth, in 1986 in a boating mishap, Lois and Gary then opted to move back to Denver. At the age of 56, Gary died in 1997 due to a heart attack.  In 2003, another tragedy happened to Lois and Debbie when they lost Matthew to a motorcycle accident. At this time Lois retired from property management and decided to move back to Idaho to be with Debbie and family. Lois built a home for herself and started a new job with Power County Hospital District in the front office. She made many dear friends along the way.

Before leaving this Earth, Lois was able to meet and hold her sixth great-grandchild. What a miracle that was for her. Her grandchildren and her great-grandchildren were her life.

Lois has left behind her daughter, Debbie (Linc) Whitnah; grandchildren Jerrod Whitnah , Belinda (Brett) Hensley, Rochelle Whitnah, Hailey Greenrod and six great-grandchildren, Makiah Whitnah, Kierstin, Alyssa, Waylon, RikkiLee and Grace Hensley; sisters Phyllis, MaryAnn (Denny), brother Wally (Leann); sister-in-laws Pat and Mary and their families.

Lois was preceded in death by husband Gary, sons Kenneth and Matthew, brothers Dick and Don, her parents and mother and father-in-law.
