Jamie Lorio Obituary

Jamie Gerard Lorio, Sr.
AIKEN - Jamie Gerard Lorio, Sr., 72, beloved husband of Renee; Smith Lorio, passed away Thursday evening, February 20, 2025, in his home surrounded by his loving wife, children and grandchildren.
A native of Baton Rouge, LA, Jamie was a son of the late Bernard J. Lorio, Sr. and Cecile Marguerite Keller Lorio. Jamie graduated from Louisiana State University and remained an avid LSU fan his entire life. With unwavering enthusiasm, Jamie cheered for his beloved Tigers no matter what the season held.
A dedicated finance professional, Jamie worked in Corporate Trust Banking for over 35 years. He took great pride in his career; his expertise and work ethic were admired by both colleagues and clients alike. After nearly 35 years in Corporate Trust and a lifetime in Baton Rouge, Jamie retired and moved with his wife to Aiken, SC to be closer to his son and grandchildren.
Outside of work Jamie had a great passion for life and adventure. He was a quiet observer, well known for his dry wit and humor. Whether geocaching, riding his Harley or manning his smoker at home, he brought an air of seriousness and purpose to everything he set his mind to.
Above all Jamie was a loving and devoted husband, father and grandfather. He was always available with sound advice and loving support to help motivate and encourage his children. His five grandchildren brought him great joy and humor and they were blessed in return with the wisdom he shared.
Surviving is his wife of 50 years, Renee;; his son, Jamie G. Lorio, Jr. (Michelle); his daughter, Jennifer Lorio Brown (Brian); five grandchildren, Madelyn, Mason and Chase Lorio, Jack and Marguerite Brown.; his sisters, Janice Powers, Patricia Hanegan, Sister Genie Lorio; brother, Bernard Joseph Lorio, Jr., and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews. His memory will live on through all those who loved him and were touched by his kindness and sincerity.
In addition to his parents, Jamie was preceded in death by a sister, Anne Leach.
A service celebrating Jamie's life will be held at a later date in Baton Rouge.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to the CSRA Parkinson's Support group at www.parkinsoncsra.org or to The Parkinson's Foundation at www.parkinson.org
