She met the love of her life, John Crigler, a soldier in the United States Army, while he was stationed in Germany. The married couple returned to the United States where Lori would make Baton Rouge, Louisiana her first US home. Over the years both careers and life journeys would allow Lori to call many places including Chicago, California, and Texas home. While living in Houston, Hannelore was an entrepreneur and owner of two successful beauty salons. Raffiniert, her second salon located in West Houston, was a special place where she loved to cater to and socialize with many patrons and employees who became her lifelong friends. Lori loved the sun, fresh water fishing, and traveling.

She made her way back to Germany many times over the years as well as completed road trips across the United States that included stops to the wine country and her favorite casinos. Lori had a flair for hosting festive events and enjoyed entertaining and cooking for her large family and friends.
