I remember being thrown into BHCJ. I was so scared. But then I seen Lori in the next pod. I knew then that everything would be ok, cuz I had my big sister with me. She was as happy to see me as I was her. We exchanged notes and coffee during my stay. She was respected there. She read alot, and wrote letters to people several times a day. In or out of jail, Lori always had a smile. She was a very positive person, living in a very negative world. She didn't give a damn what people thought of her, I wish I could say the same. I looked up to Lori, and can't believe she's gone, leaving me without a chance to tell her goodbye.
