I was shocked when I saw this. Lori, her sisters, her mother and her father were all so nice to me and Lori always gave me a ride to and from high school. She lived one street over from me and we rode her horses swam in her pool and her father piloted the first airplane I ever flew in. Rest in peace Lori.
