She worked as a receptionist at the Knox County Nursing Home in Knoxville for many years and greatly enjoyed interacting with the residents and other staff.  Lorrie loved spending time with her family and friends, and especially the time she was able to spend with her granddaughter, Harper, who was the absolute light of her life.  She will be lovingly remembered as a kind, dedicated, and caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend; she will be forever missed.
