She fixed lawn mowers and weed eaters, toasters and any other motor or appliance. While Anna Lois"s formal education was sparse after she graduated from High School, she was dedicated to learning new things. In her 80"s, she learned to play the harp and she embraced the world of technology. She encouraged other ladies her age to download the new Gospel Library app so they would be able to have the scriptures wherever they went! She learned to use a smart phone, an iPad, and a computer.
