Orrville - Corlene "Corki" Linda Lendon, age 77, of Orrville, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, September 1, 2025, at Aultman Hospital in Orrville.

Corki was born on June 27, 1948, in Akron, Ohio, to the late Dale and Irene (Shone) Jones. She was a 1967 graduate of Cloverleaf High School. On December 7, 1968, she married the love of her life, Larry Lendon, who preceded her in death on May 19, 2005.

A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, Corki dedicated her life to her family and took great pride in making her house a true home. She enjoyed tending to her garden, crocheting, and had a special fondness for anything chocolate. More than anything, she cherished time spent with her loved ones.

She is survived by her three children, Michele "Mickey" (Matt) Seiler, Michael (Aimee) Lendon, and Nichole "Niki" (Jason Ogg) Lendon; seven grandchildren, Cory (Brooke) Seiler, Cody (Nicole) Seiler, Austen (Bridget Serrurier) Lendon, Kayla (Chris) Tankesly, Kendall Dimond, Colton (Kayla) Ogg, and Nikyia Ogg; and four great-grandchildren, Jaxon Seiler, Ezekiel "Zeke" Skabar, Kinsley Tankesly, and Cullen Tankesly.

In addition to her parents and her husband, Corki was preceded in death by her brother, Terry Jones.

In keeping with Corki's wishes, cremation will take place. A committal service will be held at Ohio Western Reserve National Cemetery in Rittman, on September 19, 2025 at 1:15 pm with Celebrant Kevin O'Brien officiating. If you plan on attending the committal service, please arrive at the cemetery no earlier than 1:00 pm. A private celebration of Corki's life will be held for family and friends on September 20, 2025.
