ERIE, Pa. — Obituaries and funeral arrangements are sharing more about the lives of those killed in Friday’s mass shooting in East Erie.
Lora Roberts, 37, is being remembered as a devoted mother of five, caregiver and advocate for people in need, according to her obituary. She worked as a nurse’s aide for nearly a decade, was pursuing a nursing degree and advocated for people experiencing homelessness and survivors of domestic abuse.
Her obituary describes Roberts as someone with an “enormous heart” who made it her mission to ensure others felt seen, valued and cared for. Services are scheduled Wednesday at Burton Quinn Scott Cremation and Funeral Services Wintergreen.
Arrangements have also been announced for Angelina Stone, 24, and her children, according to a flyer posted to social media. Stone was eight months pregnant and was set to be induced shortly after the shooting. Her 1.5-year-old daughter, Amari’anna, and her 5-year-old son, Isiah, were also killed, along with Stone’s unborn child.
Services for Stone and her children are being coordinated by Burton Quinn Scott and Shiloh Baptist Church later this month.
They were among the 10 lives lost in the shooting near East 7th and Perry streets.
