Loretta was a wonderful mentor and friend to all of the night shift staff at LVHN. We had fun times working with Loretta and she always made sure that the patients were well taken care of. She had a fun sense of humor. May Loretta Rest In Peace and fly high with the angels.
My sincere sympathy to Loretta's family. May God Bless you during this sad time.

I will always remember Loretta caring for sick and injured students in the Cathedral health room. She kept them safe and gave each one a healthy dose of love and compassion. She was a lady with a big heart who will absolutely be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Sarg, a good friend, mentor, mother, daughter, and so many other hats she wore. Her nursing cap or hat was the one I will always remember. The snow storms we spent sleeping in maternity & the hundreds of phone calls we fielded in staffing. To her family, prayers & hugs, she is at peace.
