Lorene enjoyed working at Christ Hospital for 26 years but her real passion was being with her family. She loved music and she loved to dance. She enjoyed bingo with her sisters as well as a friendly poker game with her husband and all her siblings. Her kids and grandkids would say she was the "queen" at playing the game Catch Phrase, she was so animated she filled the room with laughter. She loved to laugh and make others laugh. She was also a dog lover, she spoiled her four Yorkies and her grand-dogs too! Her favorite holiday was Christmas and one year had five Christmas trees decorated in her home. She touched so many peoples lives with her kindness, her love, her laughter and especially with her faith in the Lord.
