I am grateful for the time I knew Lori. She was a friend and encourager. She attended the weekday Bible class I taught at the East Helena United Methodist Church. She very much appreciated the scriptures and the exploration of their teachings and meanings over the years and currently. I remembert her fondly and am gratecul that “she passed my way!” I did a wedding for her son and bride.

Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. I always enjoyed Lori’s sense of humor as she was raising her boys and had to contend with their friends as well. Sorry we haven’t kept in touch with her since our kids have grown up. She was a veryspecial person and will be greatly missed.
