James. S. Lamb, family and friends of Dolores (Lorry) Lamb

This fund is a tribute to Dolores (Lorry) Lamb’s memory. She was the wife of James Lamb, a 1951 and 1953 graduate of NIU and a former member of the NIU Alumni Board of Directors. While Jim attended graduate school, Lorry worked at the university, became involved in the local community and gave birth to their first of two sons. As the years passed and the Lambs moved from place to place, Lorry always had a sense of belonging to NIU and DeKalb. Even when Jim retired from IBM in 1988, they thought of possibly making DeKalb their home again. Through her many outside activities and volunteerism, Lorry made many friends and shared her caring with others less fortunate.
