Lori is survived by her loving husband Randy; her loving parents Don and Jane; brother Gary (Sherry) her father and mother-in-law Nick and Stella and sister-in-law Sharon (Greg). Lori grew up in North Kildonan, attending school, playing sports and making many friends. After her graduation, she married Randy and began her career as a pharmacy technician enjoying her life and her job very much. Lori loved gardening, crafts, snowmobiling and travelling. Her cat Elroy was very special to her. Despite her illness, Lori was always cheerful and concerned about the well being of her family and friends.
