Dolores Obermayr

September 2, 1947 — November 17, 2022

Thornton, Colorado

Our congregation and family lost a bright light of love on Thursday, November 17, 2022, when Dolores Obermayr (75), known to many as Lori, passed away peacefully in her home in the presence of her daughters. The night before her death, her family celebrated Thanksgiving in her home and filled the space around her with life and laughter. She loved sharing time with people - talking, playing games and sharing a meal. You could often find her walking her dog, Benji, or helping a friend in need. A kindergarten teacher by profession, she had a wonderful talent engaging children in learning. She was an integral part of the planning and execution of VBS for many years and made each day so much fun! Recently she was a greeter at the door of the New Apostolic Church, following in her dad's footsteps.

Lori is survived by her two daughters and their husbands (Linda and Mario Semmler; Heidi and Peter Van Es) and six grandchildren (Lydia Van Es, 23; Lukas Van Es, 22; Ellie Van Es, 17; Markus Semmler, 14; Alex Semmler, 10; Josef Semmler, 8). She was preceded in death by her husband, Josef Obermayr, one brother, Glen Paul, and two brothers-in-law, Bill Dolff and Steve Carlino.
