Growing up we did not have great riches, but we were rich in the love that Mom and Dad bestowed upon us. Every Easter all the girls would have new dresses hand made by Mom, and the boys would have new white suit coats fashioned by Mom as well. At Christmas the girls had flannel baby doll PJ made by mom and the boys long flannel pajamas. We have many good memories of the picnics we had and the trips to the zoo on Sunday afternoons. As my brother Brian said we had a hug when we did good and a spanking when we didn't. Mom loved all her children and never stopped worring about us even as adults. Loretta was truly a great Mom and wife. We all love her dearly and our hearts will have an emptyness in her passing. Mom we love and miss you. You will live on in the hearts of all your family.
