I met Lorelei only once when I was 15 years old, and I am sad to hear of her passing. I am also saddened to know of the grief that accompanies her passing that is shared by those who remain. It truly is a loss never to have been able to share in the fullness and richness of the life of a family member. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.

I was saddened to hear of the death of Lorelei. My sincere sympathies are extended to her family. I had not seen her in many years, but had contact with Mallory before his death and still keep in touch from time to time with Phillip. Know that you will all be in my thoughts and prayers at this time of loss. From your cousin (grandaughter of Lorelei's Aunt Lillian Smith Peden),
