Good bye my dear friend. You leave me with many wonderful, although presently painful memories. Memories of singing along to the radio (give a little bit & to be with you will always remind me of you). Dancing the night away or watching movies and lauging, we always had a good time. Shopping and eating out, our two favorite things. Club 101 didn't know what hit it with us... and we didn't know what hit us that snowy day on the spaghetti bowl. So many memories. Concerts and plays. I remember you got to be Mrs. Claus in elementary. Getting grief from our softball coach, and laughing it off. Walking across Anthony to pick up our girl scout cookies and you wearing your goofy ears that you had just gotten from your family vaction to Disneyland. Your still ribbing me about my fight in 7th grade, "Do that again!" You were so much fun and you blossomed into such a wonderful human being. I felt slighted at times but hearing all you did in Tulsa, it warms me to know that you were doing what you needed to be doing. The only comfort I have to hold onto is that for one year you had absolute love and knew complete joy. For a few weeks you had euphoria. That was during the time you had Faithie and Hannah. Your true love you had for years, and for that we were all thankful to Guero. Good bye my sweet friend, and I although I battle with accepting that there will never be an answer to the why, in this world at least, I thank the Lord you had such a wonderful last year on earth. People have dreams of accomplishing greatness and becoming incredibly rich. You dreamnt of meeting your soulmate and being loved unconditionally. I'm glad your dreams came true.

Dear Miss Lorie,

Debbie and I will have been married fourteen years this July 11. We have known you and Aurelio most of that time. He got me so excited at the memorial service I wanted to shout! He gave his grief to the Lord, played your favorite song and the Holy Spirit fell upon him. It really gave me strength and restored me! Julie told me Aurelio called her Thursday or Friday night before the service to explain what happened. She expected to minister to him and lift him up but instead he lifted her up! She said it was amazing. Remember eating Sunday dinner at my mom's house in Jenks? That has been several years ago but you and Aurelio made such an impression she has never forgotten you. I could tell she was deeply concerned about Hannah and grieved for Aurelio. She felt like she should attend the service Saturday but she can't sit that long because of her hip. Everyone you came in contact with fell in love with you. Mom has always been a very negative, suspicious person so I would say you had the same affect on her years ago. That is a testemony! I could go on and on but let's sing one of our favorite songs:
No hair for my hairbrush,
No hair for my hairbrush,
No hair, no hair, no fair, no hair nowhere!!!!
We miss you and love you so much but we realize there is no asking why. We will see each other again
Rusty & Deb

In Lorie's eyes, everyone was beautiful. Everyone was good. Everyone was loved. Everyday was a new adventure. Everyone was a friend.

I was so very lucky to have her touch my life. What a great world this would be if everyone could see it through Lorie's eyes.

To Lorie's Family and Loved Ones,
Although I did not have the privilege to know Lorie as well as some, she was a bright and glorious presence that touched my life. She will live forever in all of our memories and in you, Hannah and Faith.
God Bless,
Lori
