Lore has always been a staple in our family home on Gillen Road. I looked forward to catching up with her at family gatherings - she embraced our chaos, shared our laughter and was often our photographer for group photos. For me, she was also an inspiration - fearless and strong, hard working and wise. I will miss seeing her smiling face but I am also encouraged to see a good life pass so peacefully. Hugs and prayers to her family - may her beautiful memories bring you peace and comforting smiles ahead. Love, Your Jones Family

I feel very fortunate to have known Lori for more than 60 years. She was a wonderful lady who would always find a happy memory to share. She was a part of many moments in my life. I will greatly miss hearing her voice and laughter.

I feel very blessed that I was lucking to have a 45 year relationship with Leonore. We shared many great times together. She took me on my first hike up PIkes Peak, introduced me to Symphony, taught me how to make pickles and spaetzle and introduced me to the game of Spinner. We had many good times together and many glasses of wine! I will so miss talking to her every day. Love you Lore.

I am thankful for all our fun times playing spinner with my friend Lore. She would always bring me a beer when she came to our house for dinner. I am thankful for all the love we shared. I have known her since 1975. She will always be part of our family and truly missed. I love her with all my heart.

Lore was a wonderful neighbor and friend for over 20 years. You will be missed. Lore taught me so much about growing plants, especially in my greenhouse (that we ended up sharing in my ways!) Wishing all the family peace and comfort.

Lore, you were force of nature and we miss you already! I met you when I started dating Steve in High School and you and my mom have been friends ever since...42 years! Love Tanya and Jo.

Yours was the first family we met when we moved to Colorado in 1976. I remember walking to the creek with Barbie and Steve our first day on Gillen Road. I´m so grateful that Lore, dad and mom stayed such good neighbors all through the years. They were kind and helpful to each other and had so many laughs together. It was a lovely friendship.

Thinking of you all.
