Lorrie MacMath Obituary

Lorrie (De Polo) Mac Math Lorrie Mac Math was called home to be with the Lord on Feb. 4, 2019. After a long battle with cancer. She was born on May, 17, 1946 to her parents John and Margaret De Polo. She was a loving and devoted wife who leaves behind a husband Richard, sons Chris and Mike, five grandchildren Nick, Ryan, Austin, Joel and April, two daughter-in-laws Karen and Staci and a brother John.

Oh Lorrie, I am so sorry to hear of your death. But I am happy that you are no longer in pain. When I think of you, it is always with the Big 10 in High School. We had so much fun and so many good memories.

To Lorrie's family, I have included something from John Denver, 1980.

Death is not an ending, but a symbol of movement along the path upon which we are all traveling. As it may be painful to lose contact with the physical aspect of one we love, the spirit can never be lost. We have been and always will be a part of each other.

Love and hugs, Marylu
