Lois May Hagan, 85, of Cozad, Nebraska, formerly of Sutherland, passed away Tuesday, December 29, 2015, at Golden Living Center in Cozad, Nebraska.

Lois was born July 19, 1930, in Lexington, Nebraska, to Albert Roy and Hazel May (Richardson) Hanson. She attended school in Lexington and graduated from Lexington High School with the class of 1947.

She was united in marriage to Clifford Hagan on June 19, 1948, in Holdrege, Nebraska. Four children were blessed to this marriage; Vivian, David, Mike, and Pat.

The family lived several places in Nebraska. After they were married they lived in Lexington, they then moved to Gothenburg until 1963, when they moved to Sutherland, they would then move to Hershey in 1985, and resided there until 1990. They then moved to Hallam, but settled back in Sutherland in 2000. Lois then moved to Cozad to Golden Living Center, where she resided until her death. She worked for over 10 years at the Neva Coker Café next door to the Co-op in Sutherland, and finished her working career at the Hershey Truck stop.

Lois and Clifford owned a camper and they loved to travel. She also enjoyed cross word puzzles, word-search games, sewing, reading, going to garage sales, and auction. Her most enjoyable times were spent with family and family get-togethers. She also enjoyed her four-legged fur babies.

She is survived by two sons; David (Sue) Hagan of Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Pat (Ann) Hagan of Smithfield, Nebraska; seven grandchildren, and ten great-grandchildren; as well as numerous other family members and friends.

Lois was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Clifford; son, Mike; daughter, Vivian; and, sister, Phyllis.

It was Lois wishes for cremation. The family honored those wishes.
