Paula M Vogt Relation to Deceased: friend/neighbor I will always remember Lori by her smile, laugh and her personality. I lived next to the family on Lake Avenue while we went to #41 school and Marshall and shared many memories at their house. Family always on the front porch every day when it was nice out. We would jump at the chance to go to Aunt Helen’s house for the day and play in the creek. Those are the memories I have when I think of Lori and will always have them.

Michele Montante-Burns Relation to Deceased: Close family friend Lori, Thanks for all the fun times we had growing up….Your smile & laughter we contagious. Loved spending time with you and the family and all those crazy parties LOL. Your pain is no more and for that I am greatful. Know that you are loved and will be sadly missed by all whose life you touched even in a small way. My thoughts & prayers to my other family. Safely Home I am home in Heaven dear ones: Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, every restless tossing passed I am now at peace forever, safely home in Heaven at last. Then you must not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still; try to look beyond earth shadows, Pray to trust our Father’s will There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand: do it now, while life remaineth you shall rest in Jesus’ land When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; oh the rapture of that meeting, oh the joy to see you come!
Mary Jay Relation to Deceased: Friend/co-worker My thoughts and prayers go out to the DeCarlo Family. Lori was a gentle and sweet person who had a zest for life. It was a pleasure and joy to know her and work with her. May her spirit live on. I know I will never forget her and her strength. God Bless I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one, I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I’d like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I’d like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun. Of happy memories that I leave when life is done.
Margie McGuckin Relation to Deceased: Friend Lor, There are so many wonderful memories I will keep close to my heart of you:) I will never forget your loyalty as a friend, never forgetting to send me a Birthday card or a Christmas card. It didn’t matter how long we would go without seeing each other, once we got together we picked up right where we left off! A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart! You are my HERO Lori and I will never forget you! I love you my friend, Rest in Peace. Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one’s gone. Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, far as long as there is memory, they’ll live on in the heart.
LeeAnn Lee Relation to Deceased: old family friend I will always remember that Lori was the vivacious one of the twins. I am glad that she got to do a job that she enjoyed and I am sure her big brother had a lot to do with her choice of a career. The Decarlo and Searchfield family will be in my thoughts and prayers. The celebration of life, shared in the beginning, and again, in the end. Yet we forget to celebrate it, in every moment we live. Time, days, years, go on, but are we alive? Alive and do not know it, sleeping in the world and dead to the life we are to live. To celebrate all life, the sparrow who sang in the morning, and died in the night, why do we not celebrate its life? To know thyself is to know you are alive – to give, to love, to seek truth, beauty, and suffer pain. In life as it is meant to be, pain is forgotten, and strength is all that’s left to be gained in the moment by moment celebration of life. By Deborah Peabody

E G Relation to Deceased: Friend/Co-wrkr Lor, I think it’s pretty ironic the day you moved on was one that we honor our nations heroes. You my friend, truly are one of those. You were the ultimate warrior, that touched so many hearts. Another coincidence maybe?… it rained for what seemed like forever, until the day you passed away. The sun has shined ever since. Your battle is now over & ours has just begun. However, you taught us the definition of strength, courage, love, and loyalty. That will help us trudge on. You never backed down from anyone, you always spoke up for what’s right and ALWAYS had your partner’s back. I always admired that in you & it truly was an honor to have served time with you sister. :] Please continue to ‘have our back.’ Rest easy 2179, you will never be forgotten. May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of His hand. An Old Irish Blessing
