Lori's Family

Lori raised three incredible children in the Licking Valley School District, building a home that was a haven for her family and their friends.

"I've always wanted to be a mom, and as an only child, I wanted my kids to grow up with siblings."

• Griffen (26), her eldest, carries her academic drive as a proud 2021 graduate of Miami University. He has since started his career pursuit in Marketing with various brands in Minnesota. He and his girlfriend, Morgan, are setting down roots in Minneapolis with their dachshund named Groovy.

  
  

• Sidney (23), her daughter, embodies Lori’s independence and perseverance as she prepares to graduate from the University of Cincinnati's DAAP School of Communication Design and move to a big city. She and her boyfriend, Colin, are making big plans for the future for them and their cats: 8ball and Hazel.

  
  

• Grady (16), her youngest, is a quiet soul with a strong bond to his mom—and now a licensed driver who keeps her on her toes. He stays active by playing on the school's Lacrosse team and hanging out with his friends.

Lori’s love extended beyond her children—she cared for both of her aging parents in their final years, ensuring they were safe, comforted, and surrounded by love. Even in the hardest moments of grief, she showed relentless strength.
