She was married to her college sweetheart David Bernhardt who preceded her in death in 1979. She was later married to Earl Spradley, of Lafayette, until his death in 2004. Lois was a teacher and accomplished musician. She enjoyed giving piano and organ lessons and recitals. Lois was still performing until her passing. She was a member of Trinity United Methodist Church, the Organists Guild, and Lafayette Musicale. Lois loved life and lived it fully, and we mean “FULLY!” Age was irrelevant. She enjoyed spending time at her children's homes across the country and traveling around the world. She loved being “Grammy” to her grandchildren and great grandchildren. It was her opportunity to share stories and life lessons. They kept her young, and in return she enjoyed “corrupting” them with activities such as sneaking into a second movie. Lois-Mom-Grammy left her mark in our hearts and will be sorely missed. Surviving are her five children, Susan Mitchell (Kim) of Woodbury, MN, Sally Ross of Lafayette, Ted Bernhardt of Puerto Rico, Julie Duelm (Brian) of The Woodlands, TX, and Jill Dehnke (Greg) of Indianapolis, 14 grandchildren, 9 great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
