My thoughts are with you at this time. I too like Teri Jo have many many fond great memories of Lori and your family. I remember always hanging out at the house and you would always have cool food for us to eat! Lori was always a considerate fun girl as a kid growing up with her. I am so sorry for your early loss, doesn't seem right. Our family too has lost our sister in law to brain cancer @ age 51. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers. Kathy Cowdy

Lori was a good friend of mine in high school. We lost touch after school, but I have many happy memories of our escapades back in the day. God Bless her family in this time of mourning. Susan Young (Dion)

Jane & Family - My deepest sympathy to you all. Jane, Lori was very lucky to have you there to care for her. CJ, your mom was always a bundle of energy and a lot of fun growing up. There are so many great memories of sleep overs, swimming, kick the can, racing to the bus stop and girl scouts. In GS we toured the Police Dept. and your mom insisted to be the first one to check out a jail cell and she was a great lawyer for our civics badge.

My thoughts and prayers are with you both - Wendy and Greg as well.
