Lasting Memories

Lorie Hawk
Sept. 12, 1953-March 30, 2026
Pleasanton, California

Lorie Rohloff Hawk passed away Mar. 30, 2026 after a brief illness. She touched many people with her kindness and generosity.

Lorie was born in Minnesota. The family moved to Arizona and she graduated from Prescott High School. She attended Brooks College of Fashion Design and later earned a bachelor’s degree from University of Phoenix. Her career in retail necessitated a move to southern California. She eventually made her way up to Dublin where she met and married Curt Hawk. They settled in Pleasanton.

Lorie loved adventure, physical activity, and traveling. She became certified in scuba diving and she and Curt traveled to many exotic diving destinations. She was an avid crafter and delighted in gifting friends and family, not only with quilts, but with many of the other items she made on her prized serger sewing machine.

Beyond her travels and hobbies, Lorie’s true calling was helping others, especially seniors. She found her professional home with Senior Support Program of the Tri-Valley where she worked for 25 years. Although retired, Lorie never stopped helping seniors. She was pleased to be recruited to the board of the Wiesner Memorial Senior Fund.

Lorie was preceded in death by her parents Ethel and Donald Rohloff. She is survived by spouse Curt Hawk, sister Ila Corona, her husband Michael, nephews Mason and Ryan, their spouses Brenda and Shannon, great nephew Mason, great nieces Madison and Nola, brother Dean and wife Vicki. She is also survived by her step children, Kevin Hawk, wife Nancy, Chrissy Hawk, and Debbi Logan, and many, many friends.
