In memoriam - Lori Spears of Travel Express passed away

Just a quick thought - How about we have a nice tribute and drink at the next AH dinner, for all the members we have lost since the last one? We have lost several members already.
 
As someone who shares the same passion for flyfishing, and the outdoors, it saddens me to see a wonderful sportswoman have to leave life so soon.

I hope I didn't overstep any boundaries, but I paid for a memorial tree to be planted in Lori's name, and I signed the card from ......
"The good folks at AfricaHunting.com"
Thanks for that kind gesture!
 
Although I never knew Lori. Her passing reminds me of the fact that we're all only here for a short while. So go on that hunt you've always dreamed of. Take the trip you've been putting off. Tell the folks you love....you love them. And don't take tomorrow for granted. RIP Lori.
 
Wow!!! I’m so sorry to learn of this!!!
 
Very sorry to hear of this. My condolences to her family and friends. RIP.
 
That’s too young to leave us. RIP
 
Lori was a very nice lady, my heart goes out to her loved ones.
 
I just now saw this thread and I too am in shock. I looked at my phone and our last text messages to each other were on May the 16th while my wife and I were in the airport in Cape Town.
Sincere condolences to the family. She was a great lady and will be greatly missed by those that knew her.
 
I am sorry to hear this. I used her agency for one of my trips to RSA and Namibia. A very nice person.
 
I'm sorry to hear of Lori's passing. My interaction with her was very limited, but she seemed a sincere person. She will be missed.
 
My God,so sad news.
I knew her only from the infos and pictures in AH.
Charming and so full of life, that was my impression of her.
She is gone incredibly early, but fond memories of her will remain.
@brent-remarkable good idea.

Rip Lori

Lori arranged for all travel for our 1st safari to South Africa, and also hooked us up folks for side trips to Zimbabwe and Botswana. She paved the way for all gun transfers from California, through Germany, then Jo-berg. All with really great fares! Jennifer provided that same stellar service for our 2nd safari to Namibia. And arranged for our 2 sons to leave and meet their wives in Scotland. We are so sorry and pass our condolences on to the family. We're glad we were able to meet them both at SCI Conventions. We are sure to use Jennifer for any future safari.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
