Lorri Ann Bott (Rolfsen)
Dec. 17, 1967 – July 15, 2026


It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Lorri Bott on July 15, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family following a short and courageous battle with cancer.

Born in Rocky Mountain House on December 17, 1967, Lorri built a life centred on kindness, compassion and family. She spent many years working for the school division where her caring nature, dedication and genuine love for others touched the lives of countless students, families and colleagues.

Above all else, Lorri was a devoted mother. Her daughters, Ashley, Kelsey and Jenna were her greatest accomplishment and the centre of her world. She loved them fiercely and taught them, through her own example, the importance of strength, kindness and unconditional love.
Later in life, becoming “Grandma” to Brennix and Jaix filled her heart in a way only grandchildren can. They brought endless smiles, laughter and pride, and she treasured every moment spent with them.

Lorri had a gift for finding beauty in every day. She never missed a rainbow after the rain and loved warm summer evenings spent watching the fireflies and admiring the moon. Those quiet moments became treasured memories for her family, and now every rainbow, every firefly and every moonlit night will bring thoughts of her and the love she leaves behind.

Lorri will be deeply missed by her daughters Ashley (Derek), Kelsey, and Jenna (Bryce); her beloved grandsons, Brennix and Jaix; as well as many extended family members and dear friends.

She was predeceased by her parents, Allan and Viola Rolfsen, and sister Charlotte.

In keeping with Lorri’s wishes, no formal funeral service will be held.

Forever loved, forever missed and forever in our hearts.
