Our sweet wife and mother, Lois Lavern Farris Pace, 78 years old, passed peacefully in her sleep to her heavenly home on Saturday, May 7, 2022, just after sunrise to a beautiful day. Her husband of 57 years of precious marriage and her two children were present. It was a blessing, and she is now healed after suffering with dementia several years and spending the last year of her life in bed.
She created a happy and loving home as a homemaker her whole marriage life and today her children still talk about coming home and Mom was there to greet them.
Lois became a follower of Jesus, her Lord and Savior, early in her marriage life after viewing a Billy Graham video. She loved her church and Bible study. She loved reading her Bible, reading it several years from cover to cover.
She is survived by her husband, Charles (Chuck) Chesley Pace, her son, Charles Russell Pace, and daughter, Jennifer Lynn Galle and husband Bart, and five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. She is also survived by eight siblings and many nieces and nephews.
Lois is preceded in death by her father, Hubert Farris and mother, Minnie Lee Farris, and a sister and two brothers.
Lois received tremendous home health care from Sherry and Sharon of Comfort Keepers of New Braunfels for the past year. These precious ladies have become part of our family and will never be forgotten. Their supervisor, Kristi, was always present to help and cheer up Lois when necessary and prayed the sweetest prayers for her.
She also received precious help from the sweetest staff of Christus Hospice of San Marcos.
