I was truly blessed God chose me to be Lori's mother. I am proud of the impact she made on so many lives. All who knew her said she was an inspiration.to them. How she endured her struggle with that dreaded disease for all those many years with such grace. She couldn't speak and yet she spoke volumes without a word. She spoke with her gleaming eyes and her radiant smile. She was happy to get a visitor and I am told by many how much better they themselves felt after the visit than they did before. I saw a tremendous amount of courage. With all that she faced in her life she never complained. You could feel the love she had for all in her warm heartfelt hugs. As small as she was you could feel how genuine and sincere they were. She gave her life to God and she had peace that was above anything you could ever understand. It truly amazes me. Her faith was far stronger than her fear. I saw many things in my daughter I saw Jesus in her. Lori I am happy that God called you to rest The intense heart break I feel now , I gladly bear because you are resting in the arms of Jesus pain free and seeing the glory of heaven. This is not "Good Bye".my sweet child for that has a finality to it. This is "See you soon." Please wait for me with that beaming smile and nice warm hug. I love you to the moon and back, but you know who loves you more.......God.
