Lori and George Schappell were born on September 18, 1961, in Pennsylvania.
Lori acted as Georges facilitator and worked in a laundry, arranging her workload around his singing commitments.
She was also described as a trophy-winning bowler.
George was also unable to walk due to spina bifida, a condition that affects the spine.
Upon turning 24, the Schappells began living on their own.
Additionally, they explained that they had different bathing schedules, so they showered one at a time.
Lori further explained: Its the whole thing, compromise.
And that you dont get everything you want right when you want it.
When asked whether they wanted to be separated, George replied: Absolutely not.
My theory is: Why fix what is not broken?
It was so tough, but I was getting older and I simply didnt want to live a lie.
I knew I had to live my life the way I wanted.
Lori recalled at the time: Obviously it was a shock, but I am so proud of him.
Nothing can break that.
Their cause of death was not stated, theInquirerreported.
Lori and George are survived by their father and six siblings, with their funeral services reportedly remaining private.
