The family story is that when the doctor discovered that another baby was coming, he placed little Lorea in the oven for warmth. Lorea was small and frail at birth and for most of her early years, but her twin sister Florea was always by her side to protect and care for her.

Florea and Garvin were high school sweethearts and married January 10, 1953. Flo had many passions and interests: teaching Sunday school, photography, and ancestry. She loved Barbies and collected them like crazy. She loved decorating for the holidays and always dressed special for the occasions. Flo had a love of jewelry and dressing to the nines…the more bling the better. She loved to travel. Her love of travel continued throughout her life enjoying annual trips oversees, trips to the Twins Conventions, and trips with the traveling gypsies.

Most of all, Flo loved being a twin. Lorea and Florea participated in the national twin conventions, and even won “Most Alike” several years. The twins didn’t always dress alike, but they did when it mattered most.

Later in life, Lorea, came back home to live with Flo and Garvin. Garvin offend referred to “my two wives.” They now will all enjoy the afterlife with Garvin in the middle, right where he always wanted to be.
