July 27, 1929 – May 8, 2012

Lois Jean Van Selus, of Highlands Ranch, Colorado died Tuesday, May 8, 2012 after a valiant fight against Parkinson's disease and failing health.

Born in Pardeeville, Wisconsin, July 27, 1929, to Arthur and Beatrice (Smith) Heaps, Lois was a dedicated, kind and compassionate wife, mother, sister and friend who taught others about courage and unconditional love; she received her certificate from the opportunity business school in Casper, Wyoming.
She went on to become a successful Administrative Assistant in the roofing manufacturing industry. Added to this career is that of a successful homemaker raising her 4 children.

She loved her family deeply and found great pleasure in sharing their lives with her close friends. She spent many hours in community service with Women's church groups. She enjoyed sports and could always be heard cheering on her favorite team. Lois was an avid reader and reminded us to always find joy in the smallest things.
