Lorene was a faithful member of Newsite Baptist Church in Weogufka, AL where she attended as a child and continued to attend until her final years. She made juggling family life and work life appear easy. Lorene was the nursing surgical supervisor for 35 years at Sylacauga Hospital, now known as CVMC. She was a loving mother to her three children and doted heavily on all of her grandchildren and great grandchildren and their spouses as well. She always had enough love to go around and made each person feel like they were the most special. Lorene was well loved and respected throughout the community. Although she will be missed terribly, Heaven is rejoicing.
The family would like to send special thanks to Aveanna Hospice and caretaker and friend, Audrey Foster.
