Lori Ellis Obituary

Lori Ann Ellis passed away suddenly on Wednesday, Oct. 29, 2025. Lori was born May 26, 1958, in Merced, California. Lori grew up in Humansville and Dunnegan. Missouri. She loved spending time with friends and family. Lori loved to travel, so being a truck driver was a perfect fit for her. Her sister Suzy was scared to ride with her in the truck for the first time, as she was afraid that Lori could not see over the steering wheel. Lori had to quit the job she loved after a truck wreck left her legs badly burned. Lori loved her church family. Lori was a 35-year member of the Church of God & International Association.
Lori is survived by her children, Lloyd Bowen of the home, Cynthia Goselin of Lexington, South Carolina, and Roberts Burns of Indiana; her siblings Sunny Hampsher of Oxnard, California, Robert Farmer of Elliot City, Maryland, Delores Metsgar of Deleon, Texas, Wally Ellis of Fair Play, and Susan Ellis Lotz of Bolivar. She is also survived by her four grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
