Loma was a giving, kindhearted, and faithful woman whose greatest joy in life was loving and caring for those around her. She loved shopping, cooking meals for her family, and traveling with her husband as they made beautiful memories together. In her free time, Loma loved crocheting blankets for family, friends, and every new baby welcomed into the family. Each blanket was lovingly made and given as a symbol of her warmth, care, and generosity. To her family and Friends, Loma was known as the "Queen of Hearts." Not only because she loved hearts, but simply for her love of love. Her kindness, faith, and joyful spirit brightened the lives of everyone who knew her. Though she is no longer with us, the love she shared and the memories she created will live on in the hearts of those who loved her. Loma will be deeply missed and forever cherished by all who were blessed to know her.
