William Loiry's beloved mother - Carol J. Loiry - died in December of 2007, after courageous battles with five major cancers. President Bill Clinton wrote a December 14, 2007 letter to the family and friends of Carol Loiry, which was read at her Life Celebration: "I was deeply saddened to learn of Carol's death, and I extend my heartfelt sympathy to you all. A cherished wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Carol's nurturing instincts and warmth embraced her immediate family, but also reached generously beyond. She touched the lives of so many people throughout the world, and her presence brought respite and relief in times of trouble. Carol will long be remembered for her dynamic spirit, her perseverance, and her genuine concern for humanity. She will be deeply missed, but she leaves behind an enduring legacy of love and kindness unto others. In this season of giving, it is so fitting to recall the many ways in which Carol gave of herself over the years. Each of our personal memories of those gifts will remain with us from year to year and bring us strength and comfort for many seasons to come. In this way, Carol will be with us always." |
