Roses for Lori
Roses for Lori -- these pink ribbon roses are in memory of another Lori, a Lori whom I never had the honor to meet. I came across her web site and now I keep thinking of her and her family. Lori's husband Keith and her twin sister Kelly are raising money for the Lance Armstrong Foundation in memory of Lori. I hope you will visit her site and read her story. It's a sad one that's produced a wellspring of tears from me, but Lori's sunshine and joy shine through her memory.
If Laura, the winner of the contest, doesn't mind, I am going to donate Laura's prize to the 1st Annual Lori Lenfert Tilton Memorial Bike Ride. (Laura, let me know, as the charity is your choice!) I'm honestly even thinking of going on the ride, which seems like a crazy idea as it's in Southern Indiana, but a seed has been planted in my head and we'll see how the summer pans out.
Lori, you are very much missed and I'm sorry we never had the chance to meet in this lifetime. These roses are for you.

sorry, I meant to write, Hope YOU make it to Indiana! At 7 months pregnant I would be no good anywhere near a bicycle.
