Right now lorietta is watching Jordan and I. She is making sure that she still catches every time the boys (Jordan and Scott) pick on Steve and she sits in heaven and laughs. I will remember Lorietta... I'll remember our one on one girl talks in the kitchen when the boys didn't have quite as much to say. I'll remember when she drove me to the doctors when I wasn't feeling well. She always just listened to me. Having someone to be able to just listen can sometimes be hard to find. But not with Lorietta. I only knew her for a year by dating her son Jordan, but I considered her like another mother to me, someone I could see myself spending time with when I got older at family functions and just chatting with at the kitchen table over some wine. If lori didn't already know this... I want her to know that I will always be there for her family. Steve and scott can always count on my love. And for Jordan, I will be his strength and will always take care of him and look out for him for her. I love him very much.

Lorietta... your now a beautiful flower in God's heavenly garden.. your never alone when you are loved.

With Love,
Kim

a beautiful child and I am sure a beautiful woman.

I only knew Lori for a short time, but she will always remain in my memory as a wonderful human being and a great asset to the Cable Advisory Committee as Co-Chairman. We will have our scheduled meeting on Thursday because we know that's what Lori would want. My condolences to Lori's family and to all those who knew and loved her.

To everyone who is missing Lorietta today, including husband Steve, sons Scott & Jordan, parents Bob & Carol and sister's Wendy (+Bob) & Nancy (+Steve)

Please accept our condolences from our family to all of you.

Lorietta took our wedding pictures and as we look at them in the future, we will see not our own images but also remember her at the same time.

It was our gift to have known her for many years.

We trust that our faith will help us remember that she is in a wonderful place celebrating with family who have gone before her & will wrap “Etta” in their love.

Jim, Sheri, Dori & James
