Loretta was born in Madisonville, TX, on July 14, 1947. After graduating high school, Loretta chose the best job of all; being a stay-at-home wife and mom. The most important gift in her life was her family and she cherished every moment she spent with them. Loretta was married for 56 years to the love of her life, Ronnie. Hunting, fishing, traveling, camping, they did everything together. She especially cherished a vacation they took to Yosemite. Their love for each other was infinite and it is a comfort to know they are together again.
Loretta loved BIG. She was a completely devoted mother to her children and loved being Grammy to her grandchildren. She loved them with every ounce of her being and they absolutely adored her. Spending time with her family usually included dancing and singing around the kitchen while making one of her special treats. To everyone who knew and loved Loretta, they are sure to have heard the words “love you more.”
As we grieve the loss of this wonderful life, we rejoice in the knowledge that she is the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Thank you Mom, Sis, Grammy, Aunt, Friend, for being the legacy of love you leave behind. “Love you more!”
