Loretta dedicated her life to the care of her family, for which we will be forever grateful. She possessed a quiet, gentle strength. Firm but fair. Strength of character and of faith. Her faith was her salvation. Patient. Proper. Dignified. Graceful. Loretta?s legacy is all of this. If one is ever unsure, simply ask ?What would she do?? Hold close and reflect upon your memories of her, for they are treasures indeed. Mass of Christian Burial Tuesday, July 3, 2007 at 10am at MATERNITY OF MARY CHURCH, 1414 Dale Street.
