<div>This was the day the world said goodbye to a beautiful soul, and Heaven welcomed an Angel. Lori leaves behind her two young children, Isabel and Alex, as well as many friends and family who loved her dearly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She was a daughter, granddaughter, sister, friend, aunt, and most importantly a mother. Lori had a huge heart and would give the shirt off her back if given the chance. Her loss was unexpected and felt by so many.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As we come to terms with her passing, we now have to face the difficult task of her final arrangements and future expenses. We are asking for support in honoring Lori’s memory. Any contribution, no matter how small, would be appreciated in helping alleviate the financial strain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Funds raised will go towards expenses such as memorial services, cremation costs, future care for her children, and her personal expenses.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We thank everybody for their continued thoughts and prayers as we work through this time together. Through your compassion and generosity, we will be able to give Lori the peaceful farewell she deserves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please note that the beneficiary for this GoFundMe is Peggy Burdo. She is Lori’s oldest sister and the guardian to Lori’s son and daughter.
