Growing up as her Uncle I had many great times watching her as a child when I would babysit. We got into so much trouble!! All her fault of course 😜. Sliding down the stairs in a laundry basket and landing in a pile of sofa pillows was the best.

Lori was a one of a kind. Always there when you needed a friend. Never asking for anything in return. Many times she would come across the yard and help me out with pets or when I had covid and couldn't leave she asked what I needed and I said ice cream and the next thing I knew I had a homeade blizzard. That's who I will always remember. She had alot of tough times and always got through them. God called to her to help her heal so rest now my friend and let the angels take care of you. Love you my dear friend.

To our Greshik family, our hearts are broken for the family at the loss of my namesake. She was always kind and thoughtful. I wish the healing hands of the Lord bless you and hold you close through this tragedy. I know our angels have all welcomed her with warmth and grace.
