Not sure what to say?

I Feel Lora's Beautiful Spirit. She held a sense of Joy that could touch you and never leave you. She was bright and funny. Always leaving you with a smile for the day. I carry you in my heart and mind sweet friend. Always remebering the laughter and tears as if it was yesterday. No one like you, since those days.

I think of Lora all the time and remember her sense of humor and how she could laugh so hard ...she was a true friend, sharing Gods light and love. She would give the shirt off her back to someone in need. I witnessed her heart working with the public. I miss her so much. One of her famous quotes was ' It's going to be OK" I carry you in my heart sweet Lora! In Remembrance. '

This is her friend Renee. I met her in Church 17 years ago. We always sat together. We remaind friends ever since. I could always share my secrets with her and never feel judged. If anything she would say a prayer for me. I will miss her very much but I know I will reconnect with her up in Heaven.

I'm heartbroken to hear of Lora's passing. I was a childhood friend of
Lora's on Bentoak Lane. I have not
seen Lora for many years but have not forgotten her. From all the sweet things I've read about Lora I see that she carried all her childhood pureness that I remember into adulthood. I'm sorry that I didn't get to see Lora's smile as a young mature woman but Lora will always live on in my heart, and she is
smiling. My heart goes out to everyone who loves Lora at this time.

Dear Family & Friends, I met Lora when she lived in North Hollywood, Ca. We worked together. Lora gave me so much as a friend, especially trust. And through her path in Christ she has shown us all how to trust in Him. God's ways are not our ways and I will miss Lora so much. Although, I have felt peace with her not suffering any longer; today was a very hard emotional day and then I heard her words, when I was visiting Lora at her Apt. in L.A. years ago; she told me that earlier in the day...

This is her cousin Melody. Although I did not get to spend as much time with Lora as I would have liked, she was always so caring and giving. I remember when she lived in Sierra Madre we would get together regularly with our grandparents and my parents. She had a genuine heart and loved her work. She always talked about her adventures and enjoyed being with the people she loved. She will be missed but I know that she is not suffering anymore and is with Jesus.

I got to spend some time with Lora during the Los Gatos Christmas Parade last year along with Tom S, my neice and my two Collies, Danny and Gracie. She is someone who I will think about when I get mouthy and then I'll think of her immortal words... "Be nice!" Never underestimate how very little it can take to influence someone else's life! Thank you, Lora!

My heartfelt prayers and condolences to Lora's family. Lora was, as you are used to hearing by now, the sweetest person I had ever met. I was very sad to hear of the difficulty of her struggle with the illness, and was one of countless people praying for her victory in it. In the end, the victory was God's...but the loss sure feels like ours.

We're so joy-filled to know you're with Jesus now, Lora. As you used to say to me, I'll see you 'there or in the air!'

Love,
S.

Lora was my dear sweet "best friend." She always made everyone feel like they were her best friend. My life is forever changed by her unconditional love and support, and her infectious joy and love for life. She was so brave and courageous. She was also the most loyal, genuine and fun person I know. Her faith in Jesus was unwavering. I am so grateful she's with Jesus now, whole, healthy, and beautifully transformed. I will miss you every minute of every day and I can't wait to see you...
