Obituary

Lois E. Summers
(March 28, 1937 – April 11, 2024)
Lois E. Summers, age 87, of Bellefonte, PA, ended her journey here on earth April 11, 2024. Born in Milesburg, PA on Easter Sunday of 1937, she was the daughter of the late Allen & Adeline Weaver. Lois married her late husband of 45 years, William “Bill” Summers on Thanksgiving weekend of 1965. After graduating from Bellefonte High School she began working as a secretary at Penn State University in the Journalism department. Her professional life was dedicated to Penn State, serving in various positions over 41 years, spanning six university presidents. In retirement, she created memories with her grandchildren and found fulfillment serving as a volunteer to numerous community organizations.

Lois is survived by two sons, Chris (Maria) and David; three grandchildren Joey, Sophia and Ella; two sisters, Helen Weaver and Barbara Albert; in addition to numerous cherished nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by two siblings, Margaret Ann “Peg” Wolfe and Robert “Bob” Weaver.

Lois was a wonderful mother and devoted companion to many family and friends. She demonstrated a life of loyalty and commitment. She was as an example of service by giving her time to family, friends, and the community. She found contentment by volunteering early in life as Girl Scout leader, which sparked her various volunteer efforts well into retirement.

Friends will be received on Thursday, April 18, 2024 from 10 AM to 12 noon at the Haky/Georgiana Centre County Funeral Home 1034 Benner Pike State College, PA. Afterwards, a prayer service will be led by Pastor Andy Morgan of Faith Church.

Memories & Tributes

Lois was such a special and fun person. I first met her at a Lady Lions game. My granddaughters caller her Candycane Lois because she once gave them candycanes at a basketball game. We played Bingo together at McDonalds and the Hearthside. We enjoyed lunches out together and talked about all our many beautiful hats we wore to church. She will be sorely missed. Sara Carlson
