I have nothing but fond memories of my mom's (Peggy Reilly) dear friend Lori. Some of my earliest childhood memories were going to the mall just to visit her at Express. Such a kind and bubbly spirit. She will be so missed.

A legend within our Express family. A true friend and well respected manager. I'am sure her dad was waiting with open arms for her arrival in heaven. I will miss my beautiful friend, Rest In Peace, until we meet again . d
