Lori Lynn (Morris) Burnard, 59, born December 4, 1964, passed away on Thursday, June 6, 2024, surrounded by her loving husband, family, and close friends. She was the daughter of Arthur and Gwen Morris and grew up in Lambertville, MI. She graduated from Bedford Public Schools in 1983. In 1994, she was working at The Village Inn in Sylvania, OH, where she met many lifelong friends and her true love. In 2002, Lori started working at Mayberry Diner on Centennial Rd. She didn't know at the time, but that place became her home away from home. She loved everything about her job, from her boss Tammy Super, who became a very close friend, all of her coworkers, and especially her customers!! They all became her "Diner Family".
She was preceded in death by her parents; her twin brother, Larry "Booger" Morris; grandson, Delano Wells Jr; and many more family and close friends. She is survived by her husband, Douglas Burnard; children, Tony Wulf, Chris (Kelsey) Wulf, Lyndsie (Delano) Wells, and Addi Burnard; her grandchildren, Trenton Wulf, Ashlynn Wulf, Denvyr Grace, Terrell Evans Jr, Izaiah Wells, Jaxson Wulf, Nevaeh Alexander, Nevaeh Conklin, Braxton Henning,; her brothers, Art Morris, Tim (Kay) Morris, and Steven (Cathy) Cox; and sister, Terri Nimigean, and her best friend for life, Anita Sosbe. Lori had a remarkable soul and such a loving heart. She truly loved everybody she met, and everybody loved her. She was given so much love, encouragement, and support during her final days and she appreciated every bit of it!
