LORI A. WALTER, 52

LORI A. WALTER, 52, passed peacefully and unexpectedly at home, May 6, 2012. Born October 15, 1959, in Fort Wayne, she was a daughter of Gary and Elaine (Fox) Hinton. She worked as a homemaker and loved spending time with her son. She had a compassion for bird watching, baking, and cooking.

Her helping hands will be dearly missed and her smiling face, despite her personal ailments, will be surely lost to all.

She was preceded in death by her father Robert McCray; her brother David W. McCray; brother-in-law John Moran; Nephew Alex Moran; and her father-in-law Charles Walter.
