Kathy, Carlos and family
When we lose someone so young, vivacious and beautiful as Lori we can only ask why??? Someone told me once in a similar situation, "When someone this special leaves earth they were sent here to teach. Their work is complete and now they can rest." My heart hurts for the pain for you and your family. My loving memories will always be there to share with you. One of my favorite is Lori playing with the kids on the street in Fremont, wearing David's tennis shoes. The love of all of us go to your family. Sandi & Sam, David & Cindee and Charli Kathleen & Brian.
