He continued teaching as professor and chairman of the division from 1972-1991. He also was head of the Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery at Sisters of Charity Hospital in Buffalo from 1975 to 1991. Dr. Lore was an avid skier and sailor and spent one month of each summer in the Jordan Bay section of Shelburne County.
