Lorena Neumann

Lorena and Al were a huge welcoming factor for me at Trinity Lutheran Church in Urbana while I was a student there in the late 80's and early 90's. In fact I was reminded of them today as 30 years ago yesterday, they were kind enough to come and pick me up from my apartment as I was not able to drive due to a recent surgery. Always fond memories come to mind regarding this fine couple. Grateful to have known them, and worshipped our Lord and Savior with them!

Dear family: My late husband(Morris Hunter) and I became acquainted with Al and Lorena when Hunter Lumber Company of Ogden built their Urbana home. We became personal friends with them and enjoyed many dinner-bridge evenings together. I will surely miss both of them. My condolences to their family. Marilyn Hunter-Shimkus

Zim books she helped edit, and part of Volume 1 of "Our Wonderful World." I have an autographed copy of the hardback edition of Zim's Golden Nature Guides Series on Birds. It was autographed in 1954.
