Lori passed away on August 8th, 2025, in Naples, Florida.
Lori was born in Chicago, Illinois to Thomas and Shirley O'Donnell on August 19th, 1958. She went to Steinmetz High School and graduated in 1976. For nearly 28 years, Lori served as the office manager for Dr. Joseph Goldstein, where she found true joy in working with patients and building lasting relationships with them.
A passionate cook and talented baker, Lori found joy in the kitchen, where she poured love into preparing her family and friends' favorite dishes. She was an avid reader and loved reading stories to her grandchildren. She enjoyed watching NASCAR races with her husband on Sundays, a tradition they cherished together. But more than anything, Lori treasured time with her family. She was never happier than when she was surrounded by her grandchildren. Her grandkids were the light of her life, and she celebrated every one of their milestones with pride and joy.
Lori is survived by her loving husband of 46 years, Ken; her sons, Kenny Jr. (Lauren), Steven (Zhanna) and her daughter, Chrissy (Ryan) Bruno; her grandchildren, Lathan & Lukas Parquette, David & Joseph LaCroix, and Nolan & Natalie Bruno. She was a loving aunt to many nieces and nephews. Lori is preceded in death by her parents.
