Lora Lee's love for her family was immeasurable. She adored spending time with her grandchildren, always cherishing the moments they shared. Additionally, her close relationship with her sister, Patsy, brought her immense joy. They were the best of friends and enjoyed spending time together, shopping, and traveling. In quieter moments, Lora Lee found relaxation in sitting down to watch her favorite television shows.

The family left behind to cherish her precious memory include her three children, Jenniffer Stephenson (Larry) of Coldwater, MS, Karmann Holden (Jeff) of Hernando, MS, and Bertram Morris, III (Shawna) of Horn Lake, MS; her two siblings, Patsy Miller and Billy Pinkston both of Lambert, MS; and her four grandchildren, Connor Stephenson of Coldwater, MS, Justin Hudson of Oxford, MS, Joshua Holden of Hernando, MS, and Kristian Holden of Hernando, MS.
