Aunt Lori, what can I say except that I will miss you more than words can say. All the times we talked were very precious to me. You had a way of making everything ok. We could talk about anything, and I will never forget the times that we actually were able to visit and spend time with you, love you forever Chris

Aunt Lori - always a kind, caring person who just warmed my soul each time i visited. Her warm hugs could always make the day better and her zest for life was second to none. We will all miss her presence and thank God for the times we shared. Rest in peace, with love.
