  1. My deepest thoughts of you. Lori, you’re a wonderful person.I was a pleasure for me to know you. Keith Griffiths

  2. Oh no! Dear Lori,
    We met at the school bus stop in 1975 in Dublin, CA.

    Though we lost touch over the last 10 or more years (different states & family kept us busy), you will always be my best friend. We’ve had many, many years & memories together. I will always remember us as young teens, walking around Dublin SINGING out loud and laughing. I was 1 yr older. You had your 1st child, Jorie, & 6 mo’s later I had mine, Shawn. I had my 2nd child, Jessica, & 1 yr later you gave birth to Danya.
    Our sons are still long distance friends to this day. REST IN PEACE my dearest friend. I’m so sorry & sad we lost touch in our older years. 💕 Love you forever,
    Carol Ann Fogal (Fogal-Pratt).
