 Lori
Fulginiti
Owner/Director of Administrations
In November 2005, Lori along with her
husband Sam purchased the Robinson Wright & Weymer Funeral
Home. Prior to relocating to Old Saybrook, CT, for the opportunity
to work in partnership with her husband in a family owned business,
Lori lived with her husband and daughter in Westchester County NY.
Instead of following a career path based on her degree in Social
Welfare, Lori spent most of her profession in the Financial
Services industry. She split her positions between Consumer Banking
and Human Resources. She left the Financial Services industry as
Regional Vice President for a new career in the Alcohol beverage
industry as Global Director of Organizational Development. Lori's
years of experience in banking, strategic planning, service, and
human resources armed her with the skills necessary for her role
today as Director of Administrations.
When not at work, Lori finds enjoyment
in getting involved in the community, spending time with her
family, and working out at the gym. Currently she is a Corporate
Board Member of Life-Skills, Inc., a non-profit Corporation
providing service to individuals with developmental, physical, and
emotional disabilities throughout Massachusetts and parts of
Connecticut.
