With deep love and heavy hearts, we share the news of Lori Roberts’ passing. A beloved friend, colleague, and community champion, Lori spent over two decades at the Heart of the Rockies Chamber of Commerce, helping shape the vibrant, supportive community we all cherish today.

Lori was the heart of so much that makes this place special. Her kindness, generosity, and unwavering support for local businesses left a lasting impact on everyone who had the joy of knowing her. Whether she was welcoming a new member, organizing community events, or simply offering a listening ear, Lori brought warmth, laughter, and love into every room she entered.

More than a colleague, Lori was a true friend to so many. Her legacy is one of connection, compassion, and wholehearted service.

While we don’t yet have details about a memorial, we will share updates as they become available. In the meantime, the Chamber will take some time to reflect, honor Lori’s incredible life, and prepare for what comes next—with her spirit in our hearts.

If you’d like to contribute to Lori’s legacy, donations can be made to the Ark Valley Humane Society, an organization close to her heart.

We’ll miss her dearly, but we’ll carry her energy forward in all that we do. Thank you for being part of this community that Lori loved so much.

With heartfelt appreciation,

The Heart of the Rockies Chamber of Commerce
