Lois N. McGinnis, age 91 and longtime resident of
Bartlesville, passed away on December 8, 2015 at her
home.
Lois Naomi Trease was born on December 1, 1924 in
Morris, Oklahoma. She was the daughter of John
Morton Trease and Myrtle Essie (Smith) Trease. She
was raised in the Guthrie area before her family
moved to Fall River, Kansas where she graduated high
school. Lois continued her education by attending
college in Wichita where she graduated with her
degree in Education.
It was in Fall River where Lois met her husband and
soulmate Wayne McGinnis. They were married October

moved to Bartlesville approximately 70 years ago and

Lois served in all areas of the business, but mainly
was the secretary and accountant.
Lois and Wayne were members of the Virginia Avenue
Baptist Church in Bartlesville. Lois' passion was
giving back to her community, making her active in
many local clubs. She served as president and
treasurer for the Bartlesville Pilot Club for many
years. She was also active in Credit Women's
Breakfast Club and Exchange Club. She was most proud
of her service in Oklahoma Civil Air Patrol, where
she had served as a public relations officer and
assisted her husband flying many search and rescue
missions for over 30 years.

Jimmie Lee McGinnis; sister, Hazel Richards; and
