We can all find comfort in the knowkedge that she is in the arms of her Lord and Savior.

Lora is the most beautiful woman I have ever met. From the first day that I met her, I fell in love with who she was. Her faith in God and the love she has for her husband, her children, her family and others is so inspirational to me and to everyone whose lives she has touched. Lora will always be in our hearts and we love her so much! Thank you Lora for touching my heart and my life with your love. We love you!
