Tragically, last year she lost both parents within six months of each other, leaving her to navigate the deep grief of losing her family home and her beloved parents. While navigating grief, Lori's resilience shone through. With the support of her sisters, her boyfriend Adrien, her friends, and the dedicated staff at Hope Services, she continues to thrive.
