Lori Williams passed away unexpectedly September 4th. She was born on July 10, 1958 in South Bend Indiana.

Lori was an amazing mother, daughter, sister, aunt and grandmother.

She loved spending time with her family, cutting the lawn, snuggling her puppies, going to the movies, her daily cappuccino and jumping into her jammies. She had a big heart for animals and would've had 10 dogs if she could.

Lori was beautiful inside and out and was always smiling. Her smile really was contagious.  If you had the pleasure to know her you knew that she was kind to everyone and didn't have a mean bone in her body.  Many friends of the family also called her Mom.  She was truly the most selfless person, always putting the needs of others ahead of her own without hesitation.

Lori wasn't one to sit down she was always on the go. For the last 20 years, a lot of her time was spent at their family restaurant (Hill Top Cafe) where her children and grandchildren all help out.

Saying she will be missed by so many is an understatement.

Lori (Mom) you were the absolute best human on this earth, and we will never ever forget all that you have taught us, all the laughs we shared, all the hugs, all the phone calls, shopping trips, dinners, movies and so much more.

You were taken from us way too soon and we will all miss the time we couldn't have with you.

Please watch over us, we love you so much and hope you are with your Mom and Dad in Heaven.

Lori is survived by her husband, Jerry Williams; sons, Chad Kurowski (Gina), Geoff Ruonavarra (Kelly); daughter, Sara Weis (Jason), stepson. Lance Williams (Jenny); stepdaughter. Heather Behm;  brothers, Scott Dequaine, Craig Dequaine (Glynis), Mark and Bonnie Dequaine; grandchildren, Megan Kurowski, Rebecca Kurowski, Cacey Kurowski, Brenna Ruonanvarra, Collin Ruonavarra, Giada Weis, Cohen Weis; step-grandchildren, Wyatt Williams, Zach Krech, Hayden Skrobel; nieces and nephews, Stacy Dequaine, Troy Dequaine, Beau Rivers.
