For those that knew David and Lori, the loved they shared was indescribable, so deep seeded, constant and unconditional, a love most people only dream of. "When two people are meant to be nothing can end them, they may get lost in their journey but real love will always conquer and the two will be reunited. That’s the beauty of true love; you always end up back in the arms of the one you love when the time is right regardless of any other factor, even death.” Visit www.lifetributesfuneralhome.com to share thoughts and condolences.
