Lorrie Wachob Obituary

Lorrie Wachob, 58, of Big Run, passed away at IRMC on Sept. 25, 2024.
She was a cherished woman who was known for her kind, loving and caring ways, as well as her sense of humor, and her sarcastic comebacks. She was the type of woman who wouldn't take any nonsense. Lorrie was a strong, free-willed woman who loved her family and all her animals. If you needed something, she was the first to be there no questions asked, right up until her long battle of unfortunate events began on March 4, 2015.
She lived this life the best she knew with the hope that all her children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews that she took part in raising would find their way through life and live a safe and comforting life in this mixed-up world.
While our hearts mourn the loss, we do take comfort in knowing she is no longer suffering, and the Trio are reunited.
She was preceded in death by her mother, Emily (Bair) Dwyer; her uncle, Gregory Bair; sister Vickie (Wazelle) Bundy; and great-nephew Quinton Daniel Pompa.
She is survived by her husband, James Wachob; son Cory Wachob; daughter Amanda Wyant; father Raymond "Mutney" (Tania) Wazelle; two sisters, Donna Wazelle and Michele (Terry "Outlaw") Crissman; brother Raymond Wazelle; brother-in-law Charles (Bob) Wachob; two sisters-in-law, Debra (Bob) Wachob and Debra (John Bell) Wingert; and several loving nieces, nephews, cousins and grandchildren.
A celebration of life will be held for Lorrie's family and is the under the direction of her sister-in-law, Debra Wachob, and niece Sonya Wazelle. Arrangements have been entrusted to Shumaker Funeral Home, Inc., Punxsutawney.
As Lorrie loved to share life with others, we ask you to do the same. Go out and do something that brings you REAL joy and share it with those around you!
