I am Lori's last remaining sibling, Darlene Paulauski. Lori died somewhat unexpectedly on November 28th, the day after her 61st birthday. Although she had been in poor health for several years, she had an enthusiasm for life that outshined her physical illnesses and disabilities. Lori had been hospitalized prior to her death and was diagnosed with cancer in her brain, lungs, and liver. She insisted on going home and apparently died in her sleep several days later, probably from a heart event. She had no life insurance, both she and her husband Keith were living on disability income, and she had no savings to cover her expenses for cremation, a memorial, or life-end medical expenses.

Any support to cover these expenses will take the burden off her family. Lori was a generous soul in her kindness and concern for other people and living creatures. Please consider a gift in any amount. Funds will be used for final expenses and to assist Keith.
