Loretta was a special person to me. She will be missed.
Wonderful memories of Aunt Loretta as we were all growing up. She was the only family member to continue to call me “Kathy Jean” – I will miss hearing that! She and Brenda were Steve’s first visitors after he was born.
I hope the prayers of your friends and family ease your hurting and God’s peace replace your heartache with warm and loving memories!
