Lori Anne Goodman

On August 4, 2025, the world lost a remarkable soul, Lori Anne Goodman. Born in Concord, Massachusetts on May 12, 1965, Lori was an embodiment of resilience, courage, and unconditional love. Her life was a testament to her unwavering dedication to those she held dear, and her legacy is a reflection of her beautiful spirit.

Lori was a beacon of love and strength in her community of Winchendon, Massachusetts. Her career in mill work sales was marked by her tenacity and commitment. But Lori's true passion was found in the simple joy of caring for others, especially her beloved family. A courageous woman, she carried an infectious love for life that resonated with all who encountered her. An avid motorcyclist and tractor puller, Lori was no stranger to the thrill of the open road and the power of the earth beneath her. Her resilient spirit was also evident in her love for animals, as she was known to many as an animal whisperer, always extending her compassion to creatures big and small.

Lori's commitment to her family was the cornerstone of her life. Her husband, Scott Goodman, was her steadfast partner, their love serving as a shining example to their children. Lori was a loving mother to James Sticklor and his partner Kurstin, Colby Rosado and his partner Sarah, and Nichole Curry. Lori was also a doting grandmother to four grandchildren, Harper, Hadley, James and Colton, who she adored spoiling. She was preceded in death by her parents, Francis Welsh and Alice "Pinky" Hamilton, and her brother, James Welsh. All who knew Lori were touched by her unwavering kindness, and her memory will continue to inspire those lucky enough to have known her.
