Lora was a very loving, kind, caring, and selfless person. She had a fun disposition, and was a joy to be around. She enjoyed creating all kinds of craft projects, and most recently started taking pottery classes. She always had a project for every holiday, and delighted in creating things for her pre-school students. Lora was a skilled cook and baker. Her white chicken enchiladas were second to none.
