In reply to: fred Vollman, President, Cinderella Scholarship Program 's message, "SAD NEWS" on 09:06:54 12/24/05 Sat

I would like to take this time to send my love and prayers to Andy and Drew. Thank you for sharing the most wonderful lady in the world with our family and with the Cinderella family. Lorilee always gave her love and time to us and Cinderella. She could not have done it without a wonderful loving family and husband. Thank you!

I remember the first time we met Lorilee. Laryssa had won International Baby and Lorilee treated us like Royalty! We met her in the souvenir shop and she treated us as if we had been in the Cinderella family forever! Little did we know what the future would hold. After Laryssa won Intl Tot a few years later the relationship grew. Laryssa found the best friend a young girl could have. Lorilee was so energetic, loving and FUN! She rode the "Rockin Roller Coaster" with Laryssa 7 times.....laughing and wanting to purchase every picture from each ride!! She opened her heart to our youngest daughter ~ Bryton ~ who kept peaking underneath Cinderella's Dress at Disney! The entire time there was Lorilee snapping pictures and giggling uncontrollably!

She opened her Atlanta home to us. We watched movies and scrapbooked all night long ~ frequently sneaking into the kitchen for some yummy cake and diet coke! Her selfless love was something unbelievable. She was our best friend and blessed our lives

Our family was honored to know her. We are thankful for the honors our daughters have received in Cinderella including the most incredible honor of knowing Lorilee. She excemplified what a Cinderella girl was truly like.

We cannot believe that Lorilee is gone. But we know that Cinderella will continue to be strong because of Lorilee's legacy.

All our love and prayers,
Lynette, Gary, Laryssa and Bryton Bonacquisti
