Deloris M. Lott, 85, of Byron passed away on Monday, January 6, 2020 at St. Marys Hospital in Rochester.

Deloris was born on December 23, 1934 to Arthur and Mildred (Pribonich) Backlund in Keewatin, MN where she grew up and attended school.  In 1952 Deloris married Roland Lott, also from Keewatin.  They moved to Babbitt in 1955 where she was a homemaker and they happily raised their four children; Debbie, Terrie, Roland and Randy there.  In 1992 they made their home in Hibbing until moving to Byron in 2008 to be closer to family.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Roland and her parents, Arthur and Mildred.  She is survived by their four children, Debbie Givens of Virginia, Terrie (Mike) Zirbes of Byron, Randy (Donna) of Lakeville and Roland (Cheryl) also of Lakeville; seven grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.

A private family memorial service will be held at the Byron Funeral Home.  Burial will be in Maple Hill Cemetery in Hibbing, at a later date.
