Lori Mari Pett-Anderson
Lori was the most giving person I ever met. I was blessed to have her as my wife of 20 years. She passed away February of 2024. The coroner said Lori passed away from a few things, including anoxic encephalopathy, cardiac arrest, and acute myocardial infarction. Now that’s a mouth full. Sierra Donor Services and Mercy San Jaun showed the utmost respect for Lori and our family.
