Lois M. Blank, passed peacefully on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, in Orion, at the age of 90. She was the beloved daughter of the late Frederick and Avis Starr.

Lois was the beloved wife of the late Bernard Blank, with whom she shared 70 wonderful years of marriage. Together, they built a beautiful life centered around family, love, and countless cherished memories.

She was the loving mother of Lawayne (Carol) Blank, Dennis (Shelia) Blank, Darla (Dave) McMahon, Kevin (Lynda) Blank, Daryl (Tracy) Blank, and Rob (Kat) Blank, and bonus son, Dave Bednarczyk. Lois was a proud grandmother of 19 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren, and 5 great-great-grandchildren, who brought tremendous joy and meaning to her life. She will forever be remembered as a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother whose family meant everything to her.

Lois had a beautiful love for music and especially enjoyed playing the piano. She also found great joy in baking cookies and sharing them with family, friends, and others. Her generosity and caring nature were evident in the many ways she made those around her feel loved. Lois especially cherished her time with Bernard and lovingly cared for him throughout his later years.

Lois will be deeply missed by her family and all who knew and loved her. Her kindness, warmth, and devotion to her family will remain in their hearts and live on through the many generations she leaves behind.

She was the dear sister of Paul (Gail) Starr, Phil (Mary) Starr, and Mary (the late Ron) Witmer.

May Lois rest peacefully, reunited with Bernard, while her family holds close the love and memories she gave them so generously.
