Lori Renee Ranck

Lori Renee Ranck, born on November 8, 1969, in Baltimore, passed away at her home on July 15, 2025.

For more than 25 years, Lori made her mark in the financial sector at the National Security Agency, where she contributed her talents and insights with unwavering commitment.

Lori had a passion for music, often filling her home with melodies that resonated with her soul.  She was also a devoted fan of the Baltimore Orioles and the Philadelphia Eagles.  Whether cheering from the stands or gathering with friends to watch the game, Lori embraced every moment with delight.

An avid golfer, Lori found joy on the lush greens, where she would often share laughter and good times with friends.  Her love for cooking was a reflection of her creativity; she delighted in crafting meals that brought people together.

In her quieter moments, Lori discovered joy through her passion for stamping up, creating her own greeting cards, that captured the heart and conveyed heartfelt messages to loved ones.  Each card was a testament to her attention to detail.

Lori was preceded in death by her loving father, Gary James Ranck.

She is survived by her loving mother and stepfather, Vivian B. Rizzo-Fruits and Samuel Fruits; beloved partner, Vickie Etheridge; and her dear brother, Bryan Ranck and his wife, Tina. Lori will also be missed by her adored nieces, Hannah Ranck and Isabella Smith; great-nephew, Phoenix Smith-Weinstein; her longtime friend, Karen Frush; and stepmother, Pamela Ranck.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.  Please check back for any updates.  In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the SPCA of Anne Arundel County by visiting www.aacspca.org
