Loretta was born on February 2, 1962 in Mansfield, Ohio. She was the daughter of Kelsey and Milliant “Jean” Rose. A fighter, Loretta never allowed her struggles in life to bring her down. She embraced every day with a smile on her face and an encouraging word to others. Loretta was a friend to everyone; she never met a stranger. Loretta was a proud mother of 6 children whom she loved immensely. Her family was her everything, and she captured every memory she could with them as her life was centered around her family.
