What a sweet man. Serious at times but always had a smile. He was loved by so many. Loren was a great friend to us and he will be greatly missed. Our love to Barbara and his extended family. Also to Ronnie and all his family. He spoke often of his great love for each of you.
He was a faithful servant of God. He served as a deacon at Community Baptist Church.
I was a bridesmaid at his wedding to Barbara just two short years ago. It was a true honor to stand with Barbara and Loren as they pledged their love to each other.
