Dearest Ernie, Jamal, and Family, I just heard about Lori's passing. I am saddened by the thought of not seeing her shining soul in this world. I have many happy memories of Lori's Baha'i delegate reports, the magical times at Greenlake, and more. What a great rejoicing there must be in the next world as she has been welcomed home. Our prayers will be for her progress and your comfort.
With love, Chris Swadley

Dearest Ernie and family,

Manijeh and I were grieved to hear of the passing of our dear spiritual sister. We have the fondest memories of Lori and know of her deep love for not only her family, neighbors and friends, but of her deep and abiding love for her fellow humanity of every color, creed, nationality and religious persuasion. She remains in our prayers and fills our hearts with smiles when we think of her. We are so fortunate to have had Lori and you as our friends.

With warmest love and affection,

Robert Malouf and Manijeh Khorshidi
