I loved treating Loreen as her Physical Therapist. Every time I walked into her home I felt like I was visiting a friend. We would share stories and laugh a lot. I will miss her dearly and praying for her family!

In all the time I knew Loreen, I was continually inspired by her strength, determination, kindness, and the light she brought. She faced life with courage and a heart full of love. I feel blessed to have been part of her journey, even if it was a small part. My thoughts are with her loved ones as they carry forward her incredible spirit.
