God entrusted Lois to the loving care of her parents, Julius and Josephine Kraft, on Oct. 13, 1925, in rural Hebron.
On October 18, 1925, her parents, in faithfulness to God's command and promise, brought her to Trinity Lutheran Church, where she was received into His family through the sacrament of Holy Baptism. On May 5, 1940, she publicly reaffirmed the faith given to her in baptism. By God's grace, her faith was nourished and sustained throughout her life through His Word and Sacraments.
On Sept. 20, 1953, Lois was united in Christian marriage to Norman Burger. God blessed their union with three children: Kathleen (Kim) Fashner of Troy, Ohio; Rev. Norman (Betsy) Burger, Jr.. of Grand Ledge, Michigan; and Bruce Burger of Seward. She was also blessed with grandchildren – Seth Fashner, Micah (Jackie) Fashner, and Jordan (Allie) Fashner; Benjamin (Brooke) Burger and Mark (Aislinn) Burger – as well as two great-grandchildren and two step-great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband.
Lois completed her earthly journey and entered eternal life on Feb. 26, 2025.
The funeral service will be Tuesday, March 4, at 10:30 a.m. at Grace Lutheran Church in Seward with committal following at the Seward Cemetery.
