picture. That's a good one. She was a a very caring mother. The memories of her just us always being
00:00:15
happy together, spending time kind of always the three of us. Say hi. It was just a lot of love and affection. Her
00:00:24
dream was to have a home, a father figure for her kids and for them to be happy. She wanted the white picket
00:00:43
fence. I felt it as soon as I walked into the room. And I think my dad was the one that said that she's not coming
00:00:49
home. and I just kind of fell into him and just didn't know how to react. I watched a little boy
00:00:57
break. He said not a word. You know, I left out kind of like a shriek and and kind of just collapsed uh
00:01:08
in my dad and I can still kind of feel it. And he wailed. It wasn't a cry. It was it was a
00:01:18
pained guttural whale. I'll always have that sound in my head. I think my mom was the greatest
00:01:35
mom in the world. My mom, my brother, and I had really great times together. I'm also sad
00:01:52
because I'll never see my mom anymore. She let me sleep with her when I was scared and when I see something scary
00:01:58
and hear something scary. We used to sing songs we like the most together. How do you want your sister to be
00:02:04
remembered? Lorianne. She so fun, so funny, so loving. We were supposed to be living in
00:02:22
the same place and going out and raising our kids and having parties and that's what it was
00:02:30
supposed to be. That's what we were supposed to have. And I'm it. Just me and the kids trying to get along without
00:02:38
her. What do you miss the most about Lori? In moments where I'm really sad, where I'm like, I just need her to hold
00:02:45
me. And she hasn't been able to do that in 20 years.
