Lorene was the Daughter of my Great Aunt Inga Smith (Overgard). Inga was the Sister of my maternal Grandmother Gladys Overgard, who I never met. My Mother, Diann was close with Lorene and her Husband Richard and Sons Ronnie and Lonnie. I was close with Lonnie around the time Inga passed away. We attended the funeral service at Moe Lutheran Church for Inga and kept in touch until Lonnie passed away 2018. Lorene loved to play organ at church. She was a very kind woman and thoughtful. I wish I´d have known her better. The book she wrote named Sleep With Angels tells the secret story about how she became Inga´s Daughter. Rest in Peace. Kelley Langley
