Loraine was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and had a deep, personal testimony of our Savior and of his faith in the Lord He spent countless hours cleaning local LDS Churches and serving all in need.
Loraine had a genuine love of nature, the outdoors and loved the American West . He enjoyed gardening and farm animals, hunting and fishing and working on his cars. He was particularly proud of the houses he built and his prized 18-foot cabin boat. He had a tender spot for horses and also honoring and respecting the body and lives of those that passed before him, helping to dig many graves with the local morticians.
Our family is forever changed for the better for dad's presence in our lives. In his honor, we will do our best to carry-on in the "can-do" spirit Dad always embraced.
