What a lovely, kind and giving lady. We have no doubt that God has a special place in heaven just for her. Her kindness lives on thru others.

I'm sorry for your loss of a loving Mother and Grandmother. Loretta was such a gentle lady whose love for God, family, and friends was very obvious. I am blessed to have known her. I will always remember her smile and the visits and conversations we had about Jesus and God. In almost every conversation we had she would always speak lovingly of her children including Steven. You all were always on her mind. I remember standing in her backyard with her amongst the large patch of Lillies of the Valley which are so fragrant when in bloom. She loved it. Loretta always had a smile and encouraging words and prayers for others and faced her ailments and sorrows with grace and steadfast faith. While she would mention pain or ailments while asking for prayers she never complained. She loved and looked forward to the day she would see Jesus. I believe she is resting in perfect peace and look forward to that great reunion in heaven where we'll meet again. My prayers and condolences are with you now and in the days ahead as you grieve and heal. May you feel and know God's blessings of peace, love, comfort and presence as that healing comes.
