I called to talk to you today only to get your sister JoDee. I am in shock. Lori, you will be tremendously missed! You were such an amazing, vibrant, generous and loving person. And I feel so blessed to have known you. You clearly left this world a much better place than how you found it....RIP and Love you dearly Lori....

I never had a better friend.

Lori was my husband's longest-standing friend. She was the one and only witness at our wedding, her signature on our marriage license making us legal! I loved being with her every time we visited, West Coast or East. She was so witty and wise, so calm, so thoughtful and hadn't a judgmental bone in her body. I miss her terribly but am comforted to know her illness hit fast but mercifully not too terribly painfully. It breaks my heart that we won't get to hang out with her any more. But now Lori's everywhere. Love to Jo Dee and Linda, and to Bruce and to Susannah, and really to all those whose lives Lori touched.
