Lori Kinsley Obituary

Lori Kinsley

October 7, 1952 ~

October 13, 2025

Lori Kinsley, a cherished soul known for her kind, loving, and humorous personality, peacefully left us on October 13, 2025, at the age of 73. Her warmth, laughter, and generous spirit touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know her.

Lori was born on October 7, 1952, to Irene and Armond Bosh, the youngest of three beloved daughters. She is survived by her sisters, Judy Swanson and Coween Millett, who shared a lifetime of memories and sisterly love.

A proud graduate of Hillcrest High School's Class of 1972, Lori went on to build a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and purpose. She met and married the love of her life, Michael D. Kinsley, and together they created a partnership built on adventure, devotion, and endless joy.

Lori's greatest pride was her family. She leaves behind three daughters-Danette, Nicole, and Ashley-who were the center of her world. Her legacy continues through nine adoring grandchildren and seven precious great-grandchildren, all of whom she loved with every fiber of her being.

For decades, Lori dedicated herself to her career as a store manager at Red Hanger Cleaners, where she was known not only for her professionalism but for the genuine care she showed to customers and colleagues alike. Her work ethic and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone she worked with.

Lori had a zest for life that was contagious. She loved music and concerts, cruising on the back of Mike's Harley with the wind in her hair, playing cards with friends and family, and watching her favorite game shows. One of her most treasured traditions was calling loved ones to sing "Happy Birthday"-a simple gesture that meant the world to those who received her calls.

Her absence leaves a void that words cannot express, but her memory will live on in the countless lives she touched with her love, laughter, and light.
