Lori Gorman

Lori L. Gorman of Toledo passed away peacefully at ProMedica Toledo Hospital Tuesday, November 11, 2025, her 69th birthday.

Born in Findlay, November 11, 1956, she was the daughter of John Guy and Donna (Nye) Greer, both of whom preceded her in death. She married Walt Gorman, they later divorced, and he survived.

Lori is survived by her daughter, Megan (Everette) Stephens, Toledo; brothers, John (Cathy) Greer, New Richmond; Bret (Christine) Greer, Adrian, Michigan; and Mark (Kim) Greer, Van Buren; nieces and nephews, Matt (Bryn) Billock, Carey; Adam (Emily) Greer, Findlay; Sarah (Daniel) Cencer, Marysville; Dr. Elle (Brandon Bradosky) Greer, San Antonio, Texas; Brian (Lori) Greer, Vail, Arizona; and Ali (Wes) Hannig, Cincinnati. Great nieces and nephews, Reece and Delaney Billock; Myron and Fletcher Greer; Maggie and Tripp Cencer; Sophia and Chloe Greer and Lucy Hannig.

Lori graduated from Carey High School in 1975, where she was very active in Catholic Youth Organization, and later attended Ohio Northern University.

While living in Carey, she was a long-time member of Our Lady of Consolation parish, where she served on the parish council and as an Eucharistic Minister. She volunteered countless hours each year during the Novena. She loved the Blessed Mother and Pope Francis during his reign and was so excited to see him in person during his visit to the United States.

Lori's life was one of service to others. She worked with orphans at St. Anthony Villa in Toledo. She cared for the elderly in nursing homes and private duty, including her own mother, during Donna's final days. She loved little children and often cared for them as a nanny. She was an animal lover and would take care of family and friends' pets. She loved her cat, Patrick. Lori enjoyed gardening and especially transplanting flowers from garden to garden. She was an avid Buffalo Bills fan. Above all, Lori loved her precious Megan.

Lori loved people, and she would "give you the shirt off her back," which she often did. She was unselfish to a fault, giving away most of her personal belongings to others and in death, her entire body to the University of Toledo Medical Center.

A memorial Mass for Lori will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday, November 22, 2025, at Our Lady of Consolation Church. A luncheon will follow at Shrine Cafeteria.

Memorial contribu-tions may be made in Lori's honor to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
