I am so sorry for the loss of Lori. We were all raised in Dermott and had a great time. Her mom was my Sunday School teacher. Mark was a classmate. She will leave an empty space for her family on earth, but oh what rejoicing in heaven.

May God comfort all her family and friends. She was the best friend I could have ever had. Even in her last moments she was concerned about everyone else. I will miss her greatly. My last words to her was “I’ll be seeing you.” We walked the isle together as children to ask Jesus into our hearts. I look forward to seeing her again.
