Lorie was a wonderful person. She was kind and compassionate, cheerful with residents and a neat co-worker. She loved her residents and will be sadly missed by all of us at Bayshore who worked with her.

I was one of Lorie's best friends through high school. I think I've only see her once since then. She was a beautiful person and I'm really going to miss her. My prayers are with Dave and her kids, Judy, Scott and Lynn and all her friends. She will truly be missed!

Dave and family,
The memories that made me smile yesterday make me cry today. Lorie touched more lives then she probably realized. We send our deepest condolences and look forward to smiling once again at the good memories she left us. Andrea, your letter to your mom is beautiful. Dave, if there is anything we can do please call. Love, Bob and Sandy
