Not sure what to say?

I was thinking about Lori and found this sad news on line. My deepest sympathy to Lori's family. We met each other in Monterrey (northern Mexico) in the early 1990s and I stayed with her in San Antonio a couple of times. I'm sorry we lost touch, she was great fun, and very serious about her journalism.

Our deepest condolences. We both worked with Lori at the Statesman for many years. We recall kindness, patience and a joyful demeanor that could smooth the rough edges out of the chaotic days in our newsroom. We will miss her.

I have very fond memories of Lori and our church youth group at First Christian Church In Albuquerque. Memories of watching MTV at her house and spending time together at church camp! What a wonderful friend and beautiful soul! You will be missed Lori! Prayers for family and friends!

Lori and I were part of a very close-knit circle of friends back in our youth, as part of the youth group at First Christian Church in Albuquerque. That group of friends, and Lori in particular, helped shape me into who I am today. Those cherished memories will not be forgotten.
Thank you, my friend.

An unimaginable loss. Condolences and prayers to Lori's family from the Ward Family.
