Lois Lillian Gerg
June 14th, 1938 - April 5th, 2014
Lois was born on June 14th, 1938 to Samuel and Beulah (Leffingwell) Nelson, in Salem, Oregon. At the age of 3 she moved to Tigard Oregon, where her father built many homes, including the one Lois grew up in. She graduated in 1955 from Tigard High School, and one week later married William Abraham and together they had 3 children, Brian, Lori & Curt. They later divorced. She then married Harold Gerg in 1977. Together they shared 36 years of marriage. In 1998 while in Acapulco, Mexico, she hailed a cab and met the driver Benjamin not knowing how she would change the lives of many and from then on, she and Harold made many trips to Acapulco helping the people on the outskirts of town, taking clothes and Bibles and fed the poor of Mexico. She brought several people to know the Lord through her ministry. Lois' last trip was just this January. Lois leaves behind, her husband, Harold Gerg, son Brian Abraham & his wife Gail, daughter Lori Halverson & her husband Thor, son Curt Abraham & his wife Juli, her other daughters Helen Gersema & husband Duke, and Suzanne Bigelow & her husband Allen, and her honorary son Benjamin Alarcon in Acapulco. She is also survived by 3 grandsons, Larry, (Trish) and John, (Jess) Abraham and Howard Halverson, granddaughter Samantha Halverson, and 4 great-grand children; Emily & Gracie Abraham, and Hunter & Kenzie Abraham. Lois was a member of Tigard Church of God. She loved the Lord all her life, and looked forward to the day when she could see Jesus face to face and walk with Him in eternity.
