It is with great sadness that the family of LORI LYNN (NEE HRUBY) FARFUS announces her untimely passing.

Lori passed away on May 2, 2010, after a courageous battle with cancer. When cancer came into Lori’s life, her concern was for her family.

Lori was and will always be a beloved wife, daughter, mother, sister, grandmother, niece, aunt, daughter-in-law, and friend.

Up until the time she became ill in July 2009, Lori was the hairdresser at St. Michael’s Hair Salon. Lori loved her clients. Each day, she made a special effort to put a smile on their face and brightened their day. She was a talented hairdresser who had a gift for working with people, especially the elderly, and she has left a lasting imprint on many people’s lives.

Lori was a beautiful person. She was full of life and made friends wherever she went. She loved to go on cruises, visit with friends, drive her red convertible, go to Bully’s on Saturday mornings, and spend time with her family in their backyard. Her family and friends meant the world to her.

Although her time with us was much too short, we are truly blessed to have had her in our lives. We are consoled by knowing that one day she will meet us again with her bright smile and sparkling eyes.

At Lori’s request, there will be no service. Instead, please think of her when you feel the warmth of the sun caress your skin or see a robin in the spring, and remember her for the fun, loving, compassionate person who she was.

In lieu of sending flowers, the family asks that you give a single, yellow rose to someone you love.
