Lorre was a great neighbor and friend as I was growing up. I really enjoyed listening to her stories and am so grateful for the time that she spent with me, the goofy kid living next door. She truly had a servants heart. I will cherish the memories of such a sweet soul and I know that I will see her again someday. Rest in peace and enjoy your reward, good and faithful servant. God bless you.

I think back when Lorre and I worked a two person car together, we would go and have lunch sat down and I was always a fast eater but when I was half done Lorre would be done, I said how can you eat so fast and we both got a good laugh. Lorre was fun to work with and could be trusted always.Lorre RIP and you will be missed by both Pam and I.

I had the pleasure of working with Lorre in both the Uniform (Patrol) Division and the Vice and Narcotics Control Section of the police department. You would have to look very hard to find someone who was more dedicated to the job than Lorre was. She was very skilled in her career and she took a great deal of pride in doing an excellent job -and that just came natural to her.
She was not just dedicated to the job, she was dedicated to the public she swore to protect and she did that with the utmost diligence and compassion.
She will be truly missed by all she touched during her all to short life.
