Lori was born on December 23, 1942, to Karine and William King in Dubuque, Iowa.
Lori grew up on their family farm in Boscobel, Wisconsin. She met the love of her life Robert “Bob” Sipple after high school where they both worked for the State of Wisconsin. Lori and Bob were married in Madison, Wisconsin on October 7, 1961.
After countless moves, they ended up making their home in Lake Jackson, where Lori worked at Wholesale Electric for 16 years and dedicated her life to being a fantastic and wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
Lori was passionate about seashells. When she wasn’t working or attending to her children, you could find her at the beach searching for seashells, where she found many. To continue her passion, she became the President of the Seashell Searchers Club of Brazoria County and continued for as long as she could as an advocate.
