Lois Scheinost, age 81 of Spencer, Nebraska passed peacefully in her home on Wednesday, December 27th, 2023. Lois requested cremation and a private family service to be held in the summer. Arrangements are entrusted to Biglin's Mortuary in Spencer.
Lois Marie Strong was born on January 2nd, 1942 in O'Neill, NE. to William and Bernadine (Hauser) Strong. Lois spent her years growing up in O'Neill and summers spent in Derby KS with a very special Aunt and Uncle. After graduating from Derby HS Lois later moved back to Nebraska where she then met the love of her life, Garry Scheinost, of Spencer in 1960 marrying a year later on January 15th, 1961. Garry and Lois made their home in Spencer, where they raised three children.
Lois was an active member of Our Saviors Lutheran Church, where she volunteered her time to help wherever needed.
Lois and Garry owned and operated Scheinost Trucking for 40+ years until their retirement.
In Lois' spare time, she enjoyed bowling, darts, golf, dancing, cooking up wonderful meals for family and friends, and traveling with Garry.
Her Grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest joy and she made it a point and priority to travel and attend every event, whether it was a play, a concert, softball, baseball, basketball, track and/or volleyball games that they were active and participating in. It was a rare occasion for Lois to miss anything her family was involved in.
She was known to her grands and great grands as "Grandma Lois," "G-MAMA LoLo," and most recently, "G.G." All names she would answer to with pride.
Her passing will leave a great void in the lives of those who knew and loved her.
She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Bernadine, her brother Larry, sister Laveena (Robert Wheeler), Sister In Law, Connie Strong (Carlyle), and her husband, Garry.
Surviving her are her children: Daughter, Tonya Petersen of Baltic, SD. Son Jay (Shelley) Scheinost of Tarpon Springs, FL. Daughter Kaci Classen (Kelly) of Spencer and Brother Carlyle (Bubs) of O'Neill and Sister Vickie Zeigler (John) of Pickstown, SD. Her 8 Grandchildren, Makaila Carlson, Bryce Petersen, Allison Scheinost, Alex Scheinost, Emily (Luke) Greene, Lance (Terra) Classen, Kelli (John) Waitkus, Amber (Mavrick) Hill, her 16 great grandchildren, her "Partner in Crime," Nancy Bowers, her beloved furry friend, Daisy Marie and many nieces and nephews.

Garry Louis Scheinost, son of Louis E. and Myrtle R. (Johnson) Scheinost, was born October 20, 1940, at Spencer, NE. Garry died Sunday, March 3, 2013 at Avera St. Anthony Hospital, O'Neill, Ne.
Garry attended Spencer (NE.) Public Schools all 12 years, graduating in 1958. He was married to Lois M. Strong on January 15, 1961, at the United Methodist Church in O'Neill, NE. The couple was blessed with three children: Tonya, Javid, and Kaylen. Garry lived in Spencer his entire life, where he was involved in trucking for over 50 years. Garry started driving truck for his dad at the age of 15, and continued to work with his dad until 1977, when Garry bought the trucking business from his dad. Garry owned and operated Scheinost Trucking until his retirement in 2002. He not only served as a boss to his drivers, but also a friend and mentor; Garry touched the lives of so many.
Garry was a member of Our Saviors Lutheran Church, and also a member of the Tangier Shriners, Scottish Rites, and Garfield Lodge. Garry was a pilot, and enjoyed flying his Cessna 182 or Piper Cub to anywhere. He took many a first-time flyer up to enjoy the beauty from above. Garry was an avid fisherman, and looked forward to taking his boat up to Lake Francis Case, and also enjoyed his fishing trips to Canada. He loved goose hunting with his buddies, and spending time in the blind. Garry also enjoyed spending time with his friends and family, and was always spending time at the farm, helping out wherever needed, especially during calving season. His grandkids and great-grandkids meant the world to him, and he would have done anything for them.
