Lois P Haugen, originally from Bainbridge Island, passed away on October 18th after a short and intense battle with advanced lung cancer. Her diagnosis, which came only 25 days before her passing, left her family and friends in profound grief and struggling with unforeseen expenses to cover her cremation and final arrangements.
Lois was a devoted mother, animal lover, and a resilient soul. Diagnosed with chronic pain conditions from a young age, she often said, “I have to laugh, or I would cry,” a testament to her strength and unyielding spirit. Known for her warmth and kindness, Lois never turned away an animal in need, often putting their needs above her own.
Her daughter, Alisa Goldenberg, shared that the family was unprepared for the medical and funeral expenses. Alisa has organized a fundraiser to help cover the costs of cremation, with the community stepping up in support. Donors like Lisa Breese, Rebekah Leonardy, and Jennifer Forland have contributed, but more assistance is needed to reach the $2,200 goal for her cremation and final placement at the Seabold Cemetery on Bainbridge Island.
On social media, friends and loved ones shared their heartfelt memories. TaterRoos posted, “Less than 24 hours ago Lois, my mother passes away… any help is greatly appreciated,” echoing the sentiments of many who will deeply miss her.
Lois is survived by her children, Chris Kleiven and Alisa Goldenberg, her grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. The Bainbridge Island community and her family are left with memories of her caring nature and the laughter she brought to those close to her.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Lois’s family during this difficult time, with hopes that they find solace in the legacy she leaves behind.
