February 10, 2025
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Delores "Lorie" M. Biddle, who left us peacefully on Monday, February 10, 2025 at the age of 93. Born on August 16, 1931, to Paul and Eva (Noyes) Hill, Lorie was a beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend who touched the lives of everyone she met.
On November 19, 1947, she was united in marriage to Robert Biddle. They were blessed to celebrate their 50th golden wedding anniversary with Pizzas and Brandy Alexanders at Villa D' Carlo before Robert preceded her in death on October 11, 1998.
Lorie was a fixture at Villa D' Carlo (Carl's Pizza) and worked her way through the ranks of oven operator, to pizza maker, and ultimately retiring as the beloved kitchen manager. She was a well-known face at the restaurant for over 47 years.
Lorie had a knack for bringing people together and was known for her warm heart and infectious laughter. She loved to share stories and create cherished memories with her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Her spirit of kindness will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
Lorie is survived by her children, Larry (Peggy) Biddle, Donna (Corbin) Wright, Susan Vargas and Amy (Joe) Ponfil; 9 grandchildren, and many great grandchildren.
In addition to her parents and husband, Lorie was preceded in death by her son, Steven Biddle; and son-in-law, Louis Vargas.

Linda (Hilsabeck) PreuschoffI have known my Aunt Lorie all my life. She and her family were a part of my childhood. My mom was her favorite sister, Alice. Our families would visit each other often, either at their home in Kenosha, or ours wherever we happened to be (my dad was in the Marine Corps, so we moved a lot). I so enjoyed all of our visits. As time went by and all of us kids went out on our own, or got married, or whatever, visiting became less and less. Last summer in July 2024, my husband and I took a road trip across the country. We live in southern California. We purposely intended to visit family which we hadn't seen in a long time and knew that we needed to see some of them before we couldn't anymore. We visited family in Iowa and then went to Wisconsin. I am so glad we went to see Aunt Lorie! We shared memories and laughed and cried. I wish we had stayed longer. I will miss her terribly and hope she is at peace with Uncle Bob, Steven, Mom, and her other siblings. I love you so much and I'm so sad that you are no longer here!
In high school, in the mid 70’s, I worked in the pizza kitchen with Lorie. .I was a “phone answerer “and pizza cutter. I loved working with Lorie. She was a great boss to work alongside. We worked hard and wanted to please her, but we also had a good time while doing so. She sure knew how to keep the pizza delivery boys in line! Later, as an adult, whenever I would come into Villa D’ Carlo, and stick my head in the pizza kitchen window to say hi to Lorie, she would take the time to come over and visit a bit. She remembered so many of the kids who worked with her. My condolences to Lorie’s family. Thanks for sharing her all those years.!
