Lois Munsey Gregg, 72, of Midway, passed away Wednesday, March 13, 2013, at her home.

After winning many battles and being a hero for six years, she lost the battle with cancer. She graduated from Greeneville Business College in 1959 and had a successful business career at companies in Morristown, Southern Electronics in Mosheim, Bob Smith Construction in Greeneville, and retired from First Tennessee Bank in 2001.

She served as treasurer at Orebank Community Center for 34 years. She was a 46-year member of Pine Grove United Methodist Church, having served as a member of the Administrative Board, secretary of the Administrative Board, and communion steward for many years.

During retirement, she enjoyed their farm, Lonesome Pine Farms, with her husband Willis Gregg, raising Polled Hereford cattle and enjoying her flowers and bird feeders, especially the hummingbirds.

She loved J. R., her beloved dog, and Momma Kitty, her cat. She enjoyed trips to Florida to visit her daughter and son-in-law Kelly and Dave Grno, where they loved to go deep sea fishing and shopping. She and Willis enjoyed the farm shows at Moultrie, Georgia, many times on their way to visit Kelly.

She is survived by her loving, caregiving husband of 53 years, Willis L. Gregg; her daughter Kelly L. Gregg-Grno; son-in-law David Grno of St. Cloud, Florida; a caregiving sister and brother-in-law June and Ronnie Colyer of Mosheim; a dedicated sister-in-law Norma Gregg of Mosheim; and a host of cousins and friends, who will miss her dearly.

She was preceded in death by her parents Howard and Roxie Tweed Munsey, a brother-in-law Jack Gray, and father-in-law and mother-in-law C. W. and Grace Gregg.

The family would like to express their thanks to Dr. Dharman Patel, Dr. Prince, Dr. Mark Patterson, the staff of Dr. Dharman Patel, the staff of Laughlin Hospital, Robin Kirkpatrick, Brenda Key, and Amedisys Hospice Services, especially Vicki, Freda, Charity, and Anita.

Her life's motto: "It doesn't cost a thing to give a smile."
