In 1982, she moved back to Greenwich with her family. She attended Western Middle School and graduated Greenwich High School in 1986. In 1988 she started what would be a lifetime Career as office manager at Sound Beach Services Inc., White Contractors, Where she quickly and efficiently learned and perfected the varied responsibilities of a busy and growing company.

She enjoyed cooking, gardening, working out, needle work, country music and old movies.

Also numerous nieces and nephews, who she loved dearly. The family would like to thank Dr. Ruben Niesvizky, Director of the Multiple Myeloma Center at Weil Cornell Medicine, and his dedicated staff for providing exceptional treatment and care throughout Lori's 6 yr. battle with her disease. Also, the nurses and staff at the Greenwich Hospital, Medical Oncology unit, who provided dignified and compassionate care in her final days.

I only knew Lori for a short time while I worked for Kais Custom Builders - discussing business matters while getting to know each other. She was always so sweet and funny and someone who made me feel as if I knew her my whole life. I feel so fortunate to have met her and to have known her for such a short amount of time. My sincere condolences for the loss of such a happy and positive personality!!
