Lois Morris
May 28, 1930 — July 1, 2017
Lois Helene Morris (nee Brooks), 87, of West Chester, PA., Formerly of Broomall, PA., passed away on July 1, 2017.
Born in Philadelphia, PA in 1930, she was the beloved daughter of the late Irvin and Gertrude (nee Eckert) Brooks. Lois graduated from Bartram High School. She then worked as a secretary at Haverford College and Bell Telephone. Lois retired in 1987 from State Farm Insurance Company after 31 years of employment. Upon her retirement, Lois was a loyal volunteer for Chester County Night School.
Lois had many friends and was loved by all! She was an avid crafter, learning all the new crafts popular at the time; she loved to sew and garden; was in a bowling club, and enjoyed many summer vacations at the Jersey Shore. Most recently she loved watching the birds at the feeder in every season. Her mother/daughter bond was undeniable and so was the bond that continued with the love for her grandsons.
Lois was the loving mother of Sharyn Bonanno Flaherty (David); devoted grandmother of Gregory Shannon (Kelly), Daniel Edward (Alyssa), and Ryan Patrick (Cari); adoring great-grandmother of Dempsey, Grady, Avery, and Mayla. She was predeceased by her first husband, Edward Bonanno, and her second husband, Warren Morris; also her sisters Dolores McLaughlin and her twin, Lila Shisler.
