On October 14, 1983, Lori married the love of her life, Charles Roscoe Swadling. Together, they built a life grounded in devotion, partnership, and shared experiences.

Lori will be remembered for her kind heart, quiet strength, and the meaningful impact she had on everyone blessed to know her. She was deeply loved and will be missed beyond words.

She is survived by her husband, Charles Roscoe Swadling; her daughter, Heather Mae Levering (Bolhuis) her husband, Dan Levering; and her son, Charles Ryan Swadling and his wife, Nicole Swadling (Gilbert).
