My heart goes out to the Dequerado family . Lora was an angel who was beyond special to me. She had a twinkle in her eyes like the stars in the sky, her smile was like the brightness of the sun and her loving, caring spirit as deep as the ocean. I will miss you forever and will always remember you.

I just learned of Lora's passing. What a shock! She was my chemo nurse last Fall as I battled breast cancer. She made it all so easy. Her bright smile, cheerful spirit, and quiet competence gave me confidence that everything would be all right. She was always available for questions or concerns. She will be missed. My sympathy to her family and friends.

My prayers go out to all of Lora's family. Lora was my chemo nurse....and what a blessing she was to me and my husband. She was so encouraging and positive to us. She helped us get through a really scary time. I actually looked forward to my treatments and time with her. I just finished my last herceptin treatment this week and was shocked to hear of her passing. I will always remember her when I think of this last year. I am thankful to have known her. Heaven certainly has a new angel!

Lora was my chemotherapy nurse three years ago, and dare I say it, she made chemo fun! Her smile and spirit were a ray of sunshine during a challenging time, and I know that she made a tremendous difference in the lives of thousands of patients, and to her family and friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

DeDe and family,
I don't even know what to say...
I'm heartbroken for all of you...I just hope the time you had together and the memories made will sustain you. Delores' smile was so beautiful, she lit up a room! She was one of the sweetest people ever! I feel very blessed to have known her back at LT. We had been corresponding on facebook recently and it great to see her soooo happy and fulfilled. We talked about the usual things like music! LOL
All of you will forever be in my thoughts and prayers.
Peace & Love- Patti

I have been Lora's patient for 5 1/2 years. She was essential to my care. She touched my life and will remain in my heart. Her light was bright and will continue to shine. Her laughter was a song, she could always make me smile, forget I was sitting in the chemo clinic. We shared stories of our animals which we both loved so much. You are all in my thoughts and prayers . Love and peace. She is an angel.

Thinking of, and praying for the entire Dequeredo family. Lora was such a special person and we are all so fortunate to have known and loved her. She was a great girlfriend, and time spent with her were always full of giggles. Through good times and bad, Lora was always able to see through the confusion to the other side, and that always gave anyone around her such a sense of peace and well being. Meeting Lora as a patient so many years ago, I watched her give of herself over and over, happily and selflessly. She was truly a lifeline for every single one of her patients. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

I worked with Lora for 6 years and I can't tell you how sorry we are for your loss. She was the most wonderful nurse and person. She gave so much to her patients and coworkers. She was the real deal. So nice, never said a bad word about anyone. We loved her so. We will miss her and you are in our prayers.

Prayers and Peace go out to the entire DeQueredo Family at this very difficult time. So sorry for your loss. I remember Dolores from Grade School.
