Dear Kelly,
My heart is saddened for your loss. Loren was a wonderful person. and I know that he will be sorely missed by all of you. I feel very priviledged to have grown up with Renee and Loren. The wonderful times that included both of our families will never be forgotten. My heart hurts for you. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Caroline and family, We were so surprised to hear of Loran's passing . We only get back to that area every 5 years and I guess we think everything should stay the same. Please except our love and thoughts in this time of grief and know that I hold so many good memories of both Loran and you. May the good out weigh the sad and we will keep you in our prayers.

To Kelly and her family, So sorry to hear of Loren's death. He lived in our neighborhood as teen agers and Shirley and I would go over and we would ride horses behind their place. We had a lot of fun and of
course same with you at Fulchers picking raspberries. Days of our youth......then at Peace Lutheran Church. He was a great guy and always loved his sense of humor. I know you will miss him lots.....

Dear Caroline,
I was saddened to hear about Loren, but so glad that I was able to see you both and visit at the last reunion. He was a very nice and kind man, and certainly was a devoted husband and father. We admired his ability to be so successful. I extend my condolences.
Sincerely,
Bobbie
