Lori Kay Freeman, 65, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, June 11, 2019 in Pocatello, Idaho due to complications from surgery. Lori was born on November 6, 1953 in a maternity home in Rigby, Idaho to Lorin Robert Briggs and Wilma Kay Glenn. She attended Kindergarten through 12 grades in Rigby, graduating from Rigby High School.
She met Larry Freeman and they were married on February 21, 1975. They were later sealed in the temple on July 25, 1980. After marrying Larry Freeman they lived in Ririe, Idaho until 1986 when Larry's job transferred them to Jerome, Idaho. A series of transfers would see them move in 1987 to Mt. Vernon Washington. One year later they moved to Palmer, Alaska; then in 1990 they moved back to Idaho Falls; 1991 they moved to Laramie, Wyoming; and finally in 1996 they moved to Pocatello where they have lived since.
