    Lori, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. She was so wonderful at her job and helped me immensely with dealing with insurance claims during the years before Mark’s death. I will always have very fond memories of a beautiful soul. God bless her and your family during this time.

    Lori and family; the day I met your mom Lori, was when we shared a Mother’s Day at your home. It was a special day.
    It is never easy to say goodbye to those we love. I am sending my sympathies to you and the family.
    Regards, Pat Miller
