January 8, 1927 --- April 7, 2013

Amie "Lois" Foster, 86, of Iowa City, died Sunday, April 7, 2013. A service celebrating Lois' life will take place Saturday, April 13th at Parkview Church in Iowa City.

Amie Lois (Caquelin) Foster was born January 8, 1927, in Wright County, Iowa; daughter of Raymond and Ethel (Shillington) Foster. She grew up in Eagle Grove and in 1959 married Floyd Foster Jr, and resided in California. She lived in Omaha for most of her adult life, working for Northwestern Bell for over 37 years, retiring as the head of training in a five-state region. Living God's will was very important to Lois, whether at her church in Omaha, Center Baptist Church or among peers in one of her many groups such as the NW Bell Pioneers, or the Christian women's business association. She was also very willing to help others, as she tutored for many years adults with learning disabilities, and was very proud of being a 10 gallon blood donor.

Most of all, she cherished her family, which includes her sons, David (Ione) Foster of Iowa City and Dean (Maralee) Foster of Des Moines; grandchildren, Rachel (Patrick) Cronin, Hannah, Bethany, Calvin and Lauren Foster; siblings, Melvin Caquelin (Norma), Richard Caquelin (Donna), Ken Caquelin (Norma) of Cedar Falls, IA and Rachel Kvapil of Bettendorf, IA. Lois was preceded in death by her husband, Floyd; parents; brother, Don and his wife, Evelyn and brother-in-law, Jon Kvapil. Gay & Ciha Funeral and Cremation Service is caring for Lois family and her arrangements.
