Welcome to Lolly Hoerner’s “Celebration of Life” website. The purpose of this website is to celebrate Lolly’s life, friends and family. Think of it as a memorial service where you view (rather than listen to) information relating to Lolly’s life along with comments from friends and family. You can leave a tribute candle with a message or you can leave a "story" with more text.  The final result should be wonderful collection of information and memories which make a fitting tribute to Lolly’s life.

Thank you for taking the time to remember Lolly -- Greg Hoerner

Happy Birthday, Mom! The kids and I made you a birthday dinner and cake. We talk about you lots, I miss you so much. Laurel often asks me to repeat stories about when she was a baby and you played with her. Nathaniel is convinced you played with him too. Of course, not wanting to be left out, Liliana says "Me too!" You would love the kids; they love you.

I have been thinking about Lolly a lot lately. I am in a college level speech class and one of speech topics was to create a persuasive speech about a social cause. After much thought, I chose ovarian cancer. For my opener, I introduced Lolly to my audience, stating that I think about her frequently and look up to her. She was a strong woman. I thoroughly enjoyed reading through her stories on this website. In addition, I've done a lot of research about ovarian cancer and understand the importance of self-education.
I thought about Lolly a lot on her birthday, but I couldn't find the time to post. Happy Belated Birthday Aunt Lolly! You are truly missed.

Lolly was a very special person; a great wife and mother, step mom, and grandmother. She always made sure everyone was taken care of, and always was the most gracious host. She had a wicked wit that, while not always on display, I enjoyed thoroughly! I'm honored to have known you - today we celebrate the amazing person you were and the wonderful legacy of memories you've left us.

Greg-I'm so sorry to hear of Lolly's passing. I know she was a loving wife, mother and friend. We have been gone so please forgive me for not responding. I was at a Serra event yesterday and Steve Domini, who was at the Memorial said it was lovely. He was surprised to know we are related. My prayers are with you and your children. Diane Kelly

Our family celebration of life

April 23, 2012

Lolly,

Today (Apr 23) is your birthday.  As we discussed, I took our girls and their families to Hawaii to have our family “Celebration of Life” for you.  There have been a few snafus, especially when dealing with two infants and a toddler, but we are having a good time.  I went out to “our beach” this morning at sunrise to, yet again, say goodbye; I appreciate the aurora in the clouds when I finished.  Thanks for 40 wonderful years and the memories.  Amo te, cum toto corde et anima mei. 

Greg.

Bangkok Days

March 8, 2012

We were expatriates in Bangkok with Greg, Lolly, Michelle and Kim. Our Kim was in the same grade as Kim at ISB and Lolly and I volunteered together many days at the school. She was always such a quiet force with a big heart and smile. When the Hoerners moved to Singapore, Lolly passed on her Girl Guide (Girl Scouts) responsibilities to me and and I soon found myself the new Commissioner of Girl Guides. We next met up with the Hoerners unexpectedly in a campground in New Zealand as both families were on holiday traveling the island in opposite directions! Truly it's a small world! We never missed a Christmas card and neither did Lolly as we continued to travel. Our hearts go out to Greg, Michelle, Kim and their lovely families. We all miss you, Lolly.

Choc Chip Cookies

March 1, 2012

I still cannot make chocolate chip cookies like Lolly.  She gave us a plate with the recipe on when we left Greece in 1981.  Lolly gave me a one to one cookery demonstration in my kitchen in England  and still they are not as good as hers!!! Every time we met Lolly there was always a box of chocolate chip cookies for us to take away to eat – even when it was the last thing she wanted to do in October during her treatment -she had made some chocolate chip cookies for us to eat on our holiday.  Thank you Lolly – I will keep trying to make them.

Miss you, Love Sarah xx
