Lori has always been giving to the community through out her life, she did mission trips to Central and South America either through her Church or the National Guard (209th Clearing Co.) Iowa City, Iowa. She was a Nursing Student at the University of Iowa, and deployed in support of Operation Desert Shield / Storm as a Combat Medic with the 209th in 1990 through 1991. Following the war, she became a Rural Mail Carrier who always helped her customers while becoming life long friends with many. She had decided to become a donor following our marriage to continue helping others for as long as possible; with the help of God, Jesus and Lori, we hope that many others can continue to benefit from my beautiful wife's generosity.
