Lora was a wonderful and caring person- She was a person who would do anything for anyone at the drop of a hat and did it because she wanted to help anyone and everyone in any way she could. She was so very kind hearted, and a hard worker at that. She had her immediate family who loved her very much and also an extended family who told her over and over again that she was now part of that family- which included parents, nieces and nephews that have grown up with her calling her aunt. Lora loved animals and animals loved her. We went camping one year, and this baby duck got caught in some fishing line, they got the duck to the shore and while the mother duck sat next to Lora patiently, she watched as Lora untangled her baby, once the baby was free, the mom and baby swam away. Lora loved horses and dogs, even down to a little mouse or or a little insect. She always said she didn't have it in her heart to kill a fly, she would let it go free....she just had a way with animals that was so cool. Lora loved taking care of her yard, and I think her favorite thing to do was to pull weeds and get rid of leaves. When she came to our house, she couldn't resist to pull weeds and tell us exactly how we should pull them out so they wouldn't grow back. She loved to share the things that she knew that might be helpful to someone, but was always ready to listen and learn new things from others. She loved her daycare kids and their parents and talked dearly about all of them through the years. We can't say enough about Lora and how she will be tremendously missed. We have so many good memories that will be in our hearts and cherished. Her passing was unexpected and very sudden and so very very sad. We Loved Lora and she will never ever be forgotten!
Rest in peace Lora
Love you so much, your family

Lora was a wonderful person. We were very grateful she was able to provide daycare for our children. She would have Santa stop by every Christmas and give all the kids gifts. She was always kind. We will miss her dearly.
Our most sincere condolences to her family.

Lora was our boys daycare provider for many years and only as our boys grew up and needed less care did they see her less often. She was such a kind caring person and will be missed.
