Torri, Amber's with you now, please take care of her. You were both so special to me, and I miss you both so much. Words can't say the hurt I feel to lose you both in so short a time.

I had the pleasure of working with Torri while I was a student at FPC. We were fast friends, as it it was soooo easy to become friends with Torri with her magnetic personality. Actually she became like the older sister I didn't have; offering me advice, teasing me kindly and always genuinely interested in my opinions and my life. I always really enjoyed Torri's mischivious side, with that twinkle in ther beautiful blue eyes and her wicked little giggle. The two of us caused some TROUBLE!!!! But all in good fun! We had lost touch over the years after I left FPC, and now, of course, I regret not being back in touch. I have thought of her often over the years and all the good times we shared. I will continue to do so forever.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family and those closest to her.

Torri was an important person in my working life at Franklin Pierce University for many years. In addition to her extensive work as an Administrative Assistant to the Visual and Performing Arts Division, she was most instumental in assisting me with The University's annual Messiah performances. She was a wonderful person and she will be missed by many. My wife Kathy and our sons Christopher and Garrett join me in sending our sincere sympathy and prayers to her entire family and particularly to her beautiful sons. I derive some comfort in knowing that I played a small part in giving her and her family some joy by providing my lake house in Rangeley Maine to her for several summers. I know how much she loved Mooselookmeguntic Lake and the Rangeley region.

It has been sooo many years since I have seen your beautiful face. I wouldn't know where to begin except that there hasn't been a year that has passed where I haven't thought of Torri and how she was. We have shared many wonderful times together; hanging with friends; times at the lake with Steve, laying in the sun, late nights.. These are times I will not forget. Torri, you will always be in my heart. Keep smiling my friend, you are such a beautiful person. My deepest sympathies to Torri and her family,
Always,

Mark, I am sorry to hear of your loss. I knew you for years but until I worked with torri and tyler at FPC on the stage of "The Who's Tommy" I didn't know her. After that we talked often at FPC. She will be greatly missed! My prayers go out to you and the boys.

My deepest sympathy to Torri's children and family, Donna, Tom and Tommy. It's been over 20 years since we sat in Torri's room in Fitz. listening to Fleetwood Mac, and going over to the lake and hanging out. She was one of my first friends when I moved to New Hampshire, and we sure had some great times. I have thought of Torri over the years, wondering what she was up to. Now she is with God and is a Guardian Angel to all that knew her. My heart goes out to Torri's family - remember the good times. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Torri,
As I sit here writing to you, the tears flow. I know you would want your friends and family to celebrate you life, and not mourn your passing, but I can't hold back any longer. Our friendship was short, and you touched my life in so many ways, I hope you know that I never stopped caring even after we had not talked for a while. You will always be missed my dear, sweet friend.
Mark, TyTy, Connor Banana, and Little Thomas,
Torri was a very special woman who talked of her love for you and her life with you often. Pleas accept my deepest sympathies on your loss. She was truly a wonderful, caring, loving woman who will be missed by many.

God saw your loving smile and said this was meant to be,so he put his arms around you and whispered "Come to me" With tearful eyes we saw this, and now you've passed away, although we loved you dearly we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating hard working hands at rest God broke our hearts to prove to us "He only takes the best".
You were like a sister to me I knew you from online briefly but we spoke more on the phone then I did with my own family. There wasn't a time you never stopped bragging about your boys and your undying love for them,your brother and your family. When you left you certanily took a big part of my heart with you my friend. Thanks for the many hours of laughing we did you will always be in my heart. Edie(NY)

God needed his Angel and it was time for her to go home,
He knew what she needed more than any of us would ever know,
She's gone and we are saddened for she's not with us anymore,
But now she's in Heaven...Paradise forever more.
~ See you on the other side one day...my forever friend ~

Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast. It is not proud. It is not rude. It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrong doing. It does not delight in evil, but rejoices in truth. It always protects, trusts, hopes, perserveres. - Corinthians 13
Those we love will live in our hearts ..Torri ,Rest in peace my friend.

I am deeply saddened by the news of Torri's passing. I feel as if I've just had the wind knocked out of me and my heart aches.
However in these difficult times, I am grateful to have called Torri a dear friend. Torri's kind spirit, her love of life, and most importantly, her love for her three sons touched so many. Everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Torri will miss her grace, her smile and her laughter. To me, she is unforgettable and will forever be close in my heart.
I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to Torri's sons Tyler, Connor and Thomas, to her extended family, to her many friends and to all who shared Torri's life.
May time heal the hurt and heaviness in all of our hearts and only our fondest, most loving memories of Torri remain.
Rest in Peace, sweet friend, until we meet again.
With Kindest Regards,
