Just about Loretta!


Just a few memories of the oldest sister! She started out on October 30,1941 in Genoa, NY. She was number 2 of 6 kids! Oldest brother was Norman, next in line after Loretta was Alfred (known as Joe), then Larry, Lissa and Sharon. Loretta made a lot of memories for almost 76 years with friends and family. A few of these memories are here. The older pictures I have no idea what ages or where most of them were taken.

Loretta
Over the years we had a lot of fun with Loretta. Her sisters wanted to celebrate her life, not her death. So today we said good morning with a cup of coffee and cake donut, then we went to see the Patsy Cline museum. She was one of her favorite singers. She loved to dance, craft, sew and most of all she loved to gab! I don't think she ever met a stranger! All the people that touched her life will miss her as much as her family does. We love and miss you, sister!
Happy Birthday!

Until next time,
