Not sure what to say?

Craig! I am sooo sorry to hear about Lori, which I JUST heard about when I decided to check and see how the company is doing. She was intelligent and passionate and a bolt of energy - I'm sorry I did not get to work with you all further. I'm really sad to hear this sad news, sir.

The world lost a bright star, your wit, intelligence, beauty, and love of what you do have inspired me to also try and be a better person, god bless you Lori

My name is Michelle, Lori invited me into her life and heart 3yrs. Ago. I just received notice that she passed. My heart is broken I have never met a person with such genuine kindness, she was a genius, she was Beautiful she is Lori Devore. My you forever rest with God. Till we meet again. To Craig and the Devor family may God give you strength to endure

It´s so unconventional how I met her. I was testing for my certifications at her Building in Beachwood. After I was trying to get a copy of my paper. She called me directly and we immediately were great friends. She mentored me and we kept checked in on each other for almost a year. She had so many great stories and i will keep them with me forever. Lori was a great person full of love and vitality. I hadn´t met any of her family but she definitely made me feel like family. I will forever...

Craig, I'm shocked and saddened to hear about Lori's passing. I have only the fondest memories of working with you and Lori when I was at GE. It should go without saying that I'm happy to have known her. Please accept my sincerest condolences to you and the family.

Say you can, say you can't, either way, your right! Thank you for you , I will never forget you!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I first met Lori and her amazing team many years ago when they came to GE Lighting to teach us how to use the "new" Microsoft office software. Lori was so smart, outgoing, supportive, professional and friendly. She was truly an amazing woman. It´s hard to believe that someone who was such a force of nature is no longer with us. My heartfelt condolences to Lori´s family, friends and the DeVore team. As we say in the Jewish religion, "May her memory forever be a blessing."

Dear Craig and Family, I'm sorry to hear of Lori's passing. I finally met her last year after writing or texting for some time. A pleasure to know Lori. My best to all of you. Cousin Ray
