Lori was a talented crafter and enjoyed making custom items such as rosaries and necklaces.  Lori also loved to plan family get-togethers and hosting her friends and family at her home where she shared her love of baking and cooking wonderful meals with those she loved the most. She also loved her cats and took great delight in spoiling them.  Most of all, she was a loving companion, mom, and Oma to her family.
