Loretta was born on November 6, 1927 in Bloomfield, NJ to David and Rose Montini. She graduated from Bloomfield High School in 1945 and married Donald Callaway in 1949. They settled in Bloomfield where they remained until their retirement. Loretta loved reading romance novels, solving crossword puzzles and putting together 1000 piece jigsaw puzzles. But most of all she loved being with her family. Loretta’s special place was Cape Cod and she was most happy on the beach. Loretta was a dedicated member of the Holy Trinity parish community and attended mass daily.
A funeral is scheduled for 10:00 am on Saturday, January 4th at the Holy Trinity Cemetery, with a reception to follow at her home in Harwich Port. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Loretta’s life. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to St. Jude’s Hospital.
