Lory Stouffer Labensky, age 63, of Lake Mary, passed away on Thursday, April 2, 2015, at her residence with her family and loved ones by her side. Mrs. Labensky fought a courageous battle with cancer over the past four and a half years. She was born on Aug. 7, 1951, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Gilmore and Viola Backus Stouffer.

She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, David (Dr. Rachel Engle) Labensky; her sister and brother-in-law, Nancy Stouffer (Barry) Smith; her brother, Danny Stouffer; and brother-in-law, Steven Labensky; her best friend, Betty Boyer, and a host of other cherished family and friends.
