Born in a small frame house on the banks of Turkey Creek in Durant. Loren was a lifelong resident of the Plant City area. He married the love of his life Christine in 1952 and they were married 60 years before her passing in 2012. Loren was a professional Land Surveyor and held the distinction of being the youngest ever certified Surveyor in the state. He truly loved his life’s work and mentored many in the ethics of hard work and excellence. A devout man of faith in the one true God, Loren leaves behind a wonderful legacy of love for his family and home-spun humor. Loren’s daily presence will be greatly missed by his three sons, their wives and his 7 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren along with his sister Joyce.
