Life without Lorie
Well, Lorie has been gone almost 7 weeks now. It still doesn't seem real to me. I still expect to see her walk in the door. I just got an e-mail from someone we went to class with at U of PHX that doesn't know Lorie died. It's still hard to see her name in an e-mail or to look at her pictures. I looked at pictures this morning that I had sent to the field when Faithie was born. I had to choke back the tears when I looked at the picture of her and Faithie. Through all this though I find strength in all she taught me while I knew her. I'm trying to smile more because I can hear her say "why are you frowning" when I had no reason to frown. I'm trying to speak to strangers like she did because I can hear her say "you never know what impact saying hello to someone can have, even if you don't know them." I can still hear her even though she's gone. She taught me so much and was so special to me, a true friend.
Lorie, the girls all miss you so much. You would be so proud of them and how they've all pulled together and given each other strength. Kristi took your job and I'm sure that makes you proud to know that someone with her knowledge and skills will carry on to continue with our success. After all, she trained you! :)
I miss you Lorie,
Love....................Yvonne

This is the first time that I have the courage to write about Lorie
I miss you so much.
Every time you walked by my cubicle and saw me very colse to the monitor, you would always say "Ms Mirtha... wear your glasses"... and I'd say "Yes mom".
I learned so much from all of this, especially how short life can be and how easily we can take ourselves and every one else for granted.
I miss you so much!
HELLO GOOD BLOG VERY GOOD
Miss ya, gal. My heart just clutches when I think of you as not being here, now. I know this isn't right - I know the test for if our job is done here is whether we're here or not. I know you'd shake your pen at me for thinking this way - I know whatever job God had for you, you completed it with perfection and you're with Him now. But, dang it all - - we miss you so.
MY BABIE
My babie it has been 2 1/2 months and i am still thinking you are in Tulsa. I can't seem to fill your position as a mother to my two babies. I am trying so hard but they still need their mom. I pray and pray and pray for strengh and acceptance on gods will but i guess i am only human. Please give me a sign that you are okay so i can let go. As you can see the girls are okay and growing. Faithie still clings to her daddie. With all my love to everyone who is holding on to her love' may the Lord give you strength to keep going. We have an angel in heaven watching over us.
God bless each and everyone of you.
