Besides being an excellent homemaker, wife and mother, LoRena enjoyed doing nice things for her family and anyone she could help out. If anyone ever said they wanted or needed anything, she would see to it that they would get it. Always listening to see what they wanted. If you went to her home and said that you liked something it would go home with you. She was a giver. LoRina also loved to cook, gardening, canning, walking, dancing, biking and most of all dressing up and loved big earings which she would love wearing to the Elks Lodge #2752 where she enjoyed the great friendships of the members.
