Lori Ann Dean, 58, passed away at her Cottonwood home, surrounded by family, after a courageous battle with breast cancer. She was born in Albion, Michigan to Andrew and Shirley Paskett. Lori received her associate’s degree in accounting and worked in the finance department with the City of Sedona. Lori enjoyed watching sports of all kinds especially her Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Diamondbacks. She loved playing all kinds of games with family and friends and was an avid tournament poker player, as well. She also enjoyed traveling, hiking and anything she got to do with the love of her life, Steve. Her two children were her greatest pride and joy in her life. Lori is survived by her husband, Steven, her two children David Schneider (daughter-in-law Kari Schneider) and Danielle Schneider, and her two sisters Julie Jiles and Lisa Edwards. She was preceded in death by her parents and her brother Phil. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations be made to any of the breast cancer charitable organizations. The family wishes to have a celebration of life/service at a future date.
