Lorna was born on April 22, 1935 to Ernest and Velma Haeussler in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. After Lorna graduated from Cedar Rapids High School, she went on to get her 2 year degree in early childhood development at Coe College in Cedar Rapids.
While in college she met Paul K. Nunn at a church youth group event. Lorna married Paul after they graduated and had four boys together (Steve, Brad, Doug, and Andy). They lived most of their married lives in Madison, New Jersey, with a few years lived in London, England just before Paul retired from Exxon. While raising the boys, she also found time to complete a 4 year teaching degree and teach nursery school and elementary school. Their early retirement years were spent in Tennessee and then later in Florida.
Lorna was pre-deceased by her husband of 56 years (Paul Kay Nunn), her brother (Henry Haeussler), and her eldest son (Steven Allen Nunn).
Lorna is survived by her three sons Brad, Doug, and Andy; her daughters-in-law Donna, Janette, and Heather; her grandchildren Chris, Kimberley, Mike, Matt, Joshua, Emily and Zachary; and her great-grandchildren Cameron, Chase, and Jordan (and her granddaughter-in-law Travonna, grandson-in-law Alex, and granddaughter-in-law Grace).
She loved playing the piano, organ, and flute and singing in numerous church choirs throughout the years. She grew up ice-skating, camping, traveling, playing card games, and making time for family – traditions that carried on to her kids, grandkids, and great grandkids. She served faithfully at numerous churches throughout the years with Paul and loved to share her faith and her trust in her Savior, Jesus Christ.
