Not sure what to say?

Dearest Eric: I was saddened to learn of Lori´s passing. When my son, Chris, told me, I recalled with fondness Lori´s support of your coaching our children as they represented Hilton HS in many rowing regattas. While you may not have had children of your own, Lori embraced our children becoming HHS "team mom." Not surprising was reading about her extensive life accomplishments dedicated to children and families. Lori´s kindness, compassion, and empathy is her legacy. You´re forever in...

Carol and Mike, It is so many years since we have seen each other. And while I don't know your children, I was so upset to learn of your daughter's passing. May God rest her soul and bring you peace. Shirley Skillman Hess

Our sincere condolences to the Drago and Nienaber families at your loss. We will forever remember Lori as a wonderful and thoughtful neighbor who brought sunshine to our lives -- and dropped off surprises during the pandemic. May she rest in the arms of the Lord.

Mike and family I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your daughter. I remember meeting here at Joe's steak shop cruise when she had her black Camaro there. My sincere sympathies and condolences to you and your family.

Condolences to the entire Drago family. Lori lived a very full life according to the beautifully written obituary. Her time here was well spent with those she loved. For those of us who grew up on the 100 block of East Saint Joseph Street, we viewed each other like family, and Lori was a part of that family. We all know that life can be terribly unfair. However, it appears that Lori lived an absolutely full life, even at the age of 55. To the Drago family, and Lori´s husband. I´m very...

May God bless you and your family during this difficult time of sorrow. May Lori rest in the hands of the Lord

I'm so sorry for the passing of Lori. I remember her so fondly as a friend, neighbor, and classmate. I remember the amount of time that neighborhood kids spent in the Drago/Gunderman yards, using that patch of grass as a makeshift playground, running the block from dawn til dusk. A better time with close knit neighbors, everyone friends. To the Drago family, Mike and Mr. and Mrs. Drago, what a wonderful sister and daughter you had in Lori. She became such an accomplished professional via...
