Lory Lea Nattress was born in Eau Claire, WI on September 30, 1950. She was raised by Lawrence and Margaret (Cutsforth) DeGidio in Rice Lake, WI where she graduated from Rice Lake High School. Lory went on to attend the University of Wisconsin-Madison, but her sense of adventure drew her to the West Coast. She worked for many years for Western, and then Delta, airlines which she would retire from.
Even after retirement, Lory’s generous heart kept her working by volunteering with Guide Dogs for the Blind. She loved animals, and was known to feed all the neighborhood squirrels and hummingbirds.'
Lory is survived by her son, Adam Nattress, her granddaughter, Nyla Lea Nattress, her sisters, Sandra and Judy, and her brothers, Dennis and Bruce. Her kindness, dry sense of humor, and dedication will be missed by everyone who knew her.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks only for memories and photos to be shared below in remembrance of Lory.
“Love you, Bye”
