Ik ben niet snel van slag, maar dit heeft mij echt aangegrepen. Ik hoop dat ze nu samen is met haar dochter.

I just saw Kaysi's story and was so moved by her mother Lori. She said that she's "excited that I get to leave sooner and be with my kiddo" and that her cremains will be in Kaysi's casket so that they would be together forever. It has completely broken my heart; no one deserves to go through what they endured. I am so hopeful that they are together and happy; smiling and hugging each other in heaven. God bless.

I just got done watching Lori's story. My mom died 20 years ago from terminal breast cancer. Lori was very strong and brave to open up about her story. Lori can now spend eternal peace with her daughter. Rest in Peace. Amen.

I just heard your story, and at the very end it said you were diagnosed with terminal cancer. You were literally staring death in the face during the entire interview, I don't know what happens when we die, but I truly hope your hugging your daughter yet again. May you rest in peace.

Huh, Lori was a great woman. Just saw her show then this obituary. Brought tears to my eyes since my mom passed 11 years ago as if I knew her all along. She boldly embraced impending death many of us can't. She's surely in a better place with her beloved daughter, Kaysi.
Babs.

Conheci sua estória através do documentário que acabei de rever no canal ID. Queria saber se ela continuava vencendo essa maldita doença mas ...
Tenho certeza absoluta que o seu mais profundo sofrimento, foi o responsável pelo aparecimento dessa doença que, muitas vezes, nasce da dor emocional extrema. Qqr pessoa sensível, como ela, não aguentaria ... e ela sucumbiu pois foi demais ...
Muita falta de sorte cruzar com o mal em pessoa - e ela teve essa suprema desdita.
Que esteja bem e em paz ao lado da filha ...

I’ve just started seeing the show Lori was in. It hit me hard since I’m having an existential crisis at the moment. Her words on her embracing death and accepting that she will be in a better place was deep to me. I’m a mother and wife and have a hard time thinking about death, of any one. Her words reminds me that there is something after death. What ever you call it, be it heaven or Valhalla, she’s there with her baby daughter. Smiling and laughing with her. RIP Lori.

I met Lori at Deer Park Library and we became fast friends largely in part due to our shared quiet, but slightly subversive, sense of humour. I always looked forward to her entertaining letters when I went away to university and we had a memorable trip to England with my mom (who also worked at Deer Park). My mom thought of her as a dear friend and the last time I saw Lori was, unfortunately a few years ago, at my mom's funeral. I will remember Lori for her wit, warmth and kindness.

My deepest condolences to Lori's family. She was a truly sweet person, unfailingly kind and friendly. I worked with her at the Osborne Collection, where her name was already a byword for kindness, conscientiousness and knowledge even before I met her. I was so privileged to know her, even for such a short time. And I will remember her for her delightful sense of humour and great bravery in the face of her health challenges.

I knew Lori for many years at Toronto Public Library-both when I worked at Wychwood Branch and she worked at Deer Park, - and later when I worked at Lillian Smith Branch and she started at Osborne Collection.
We kept in touch when I worked at Toronto Reference Library, and then after I and then she retired.
She was a wonderful person. The news of her passing was devastating, even if we were expecting it, after her long fight against illness.
I will miss our occasional lunches, and our many phone calls. But her memory will always stay on in our hearts and thoughts.

I lived at the same university residence as Lori in 1980/81, Ewart College, University of Toronto. She was studying Library Science. I was doing an MA in Drama. We have remained good friends through the years. We talk on the phone occasionally and have engaged regularly in the old fashioned art of letter writing, most recently last summer, 2019. I saw her most recently at Osborne shortly before she left. She showed me some of the collection and we went out for coffee and a chat afterwards. It is rare to have a consistent friendship that lasts so long. I am grateful to have known Lori. She has introduced me to so many wonderful writers and books. She has a strong social conscience. I have benefited greatly from hearing her views about history and current affairs. She has a wonderful sense of humour. She is kind and has true humility. She is a loyal friend. I will miss her.

I trained Lori as a Librarian at Forest Hill Library when she first started work with TPL. Our paths crossed again when I was re-deployed to Lillian H. Smith Library many years later when she worked at the Osborne Collection. She was a positive and kind person and will be missed. My condolences to her family and friends.

I worked with Lori for a very short time at the Osborne Collection, but it was long enough to discover that she was a person of exceptional diligence, kindness, and patience. My condolences to her friends and family.

I had the pleasure of working with Lori at the Osborne Collection. She was one of those rare people with a genuinely positive and good hearted nature. She lifted my spirits many times with her thoughtful observations and her gift of truly listening to others. I will miss her.

I worked with Lori at the Osborne Collection for many years. She was a delight: unfailingly kind, helpful and loved by all. After she retired we kept in touch and I consider her a close friend. She will be sorely missed.

My sincere condolences to all of Lori's family and friends. I was one of the "library" friends who feels so privileged to have worked with her again the last half year before her retirement. She was a wise, kind, generous, thoughtful and collegial person, and I was lucky to know her the little that I did.
