Sandy,
Please accept my dearest sympathy in the loss of your daughter, Lori. Although I only knew Lori for a short time, it didn't take long to see her kindness and sensitivity. She had a rare warmth of personality.
May the memories of this tragedy soon give way to all the memories of joy and happiness you have of her.
My prayers are with you.
Love to you and your family,
Ruthann

Hi Jamie, I was an old friend of your Aunt Lori's. I am glad you are able to be with family and celebrate her life! If I lived close by I would be there too. Please ask your mom (Colleen) or grandma to contact me. I would like to get to talk with them and share in the fond memories. Thank you. Blessings to you all.

I am sorry sorry for your loss. Hard to believe she is gone. Lori was such a fun loving girl. I will always remember her laugh and wonderful personality. We had a lot of fun times together, usually getting in lots of trouble, right Colleen? I just want you to know that you are in my prayers, god bless.

Dear Lori's Family,
You are a special bunch and I have thought of you all through out the years. My heart is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Lori. She was a sister to me growing up. We shared so many good times! I remember the fun we had when Sandy took us to Seaside Heights for the week, & getting my first perm from Aunt Jeanie. Colleen saved my life in highschool and I thought of John as another younger brother! My kids have heard stories that I tell of walking all the way from my house in CS to Lori's, up Layton Rd. and the fun times at South Abington's Carnivals. Ofcourse there are some stories they aren't old enough to hear (& some they never will!)All the good times and laughter are what I will cherish and I pray the same for you. I pray that God will quickly mend your broken hearts and trade your sorrow for joy. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Sue

To Aunt Sandy, Colleen, and John:
I will, for the rest of my life, struggle to find the words to express the heartbreak I'm feeling at the loss of Lori. If I had to pick just one aspect of her character, it would be this: When you were at your worst, she was at her best. I have yet to meet someone who is as quick-witted and funny as Lori was. Her sense of humor never once let me down, and she was always so quick to listen and help anyone who needed it. The world was a better place with Lori in it, but Heaven just got themselves a great addition. I'll always miss her.

Dear Sandy,Colleen, John and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of sweet Lori. She was an amazing niece. I loved her very much. She was an excellent caregiver when I was recuperating from my surgeries. Her wonderful personality kept me thinking positive. She had a contagious smile and great sense of humor. Uncle John and I will miss her very much. We love you Lori and know that you are now a guardian angel looking after your family from heaven.
We send our love to your beautiful family,
Aunt Jeannie and Uncle John

My heart breaks for you Sandy, and the rest of your family. I did not know Lori very well, but have heard plenty of stories from my mom. What I have heard and what I do know, she was a very special, kind, loving lady. She is now an angel watching over all of you. Prayers to you all.

Dearest Sandy and family. I am so sorry about the loss of Lori. She was very special in our lives. I remember when she first moved with you Sandy, and all she did was sit at the table and listen to her IPOD. I changed that. the girl took the ear plugs out of her ears and started talking, of course I wouldn't leave her alone. I kept talking to her. she probably got tired of putting the ear plugs in and out. Anyway, we shared alot of conversations, and we learned to truly love each other's company. Lori is very special to me and I will never forget her. You should be very proud of the person that she was. She fought with all she had. I am certainly proud of the time I knew her. Clark and I both will miss her. She is the most beautiful angel in heaven right now. Clark and Paulette
