Hi Mom,

It is hard to believe 10 years have gone by so far. I miss talking with you. I miss the holidays and other times we all spent together. I am very thankful for the many years we had together with you and for the love you generously shared with us all.

Love you mom!!!

Lon

Happy Birthday Mom. I’m thinking of you and your beautiful smile. I love you!

Hi mom, it's Lon
Happy Birthday!! 
Love you very much!!!

Hi mom,

I miss you.

I miss our phone conversations, the family celebrations and holidays together with you. You always put so much love into our and your friends’ worlds.

I miss the occasional everyday meal, and I miss your advice. Your reminders to treat others as we want them to treat us are sorely needed in our country and the world today.

Thank you for being our mom. Your love, wisdom and light still shine in my heart and my head.

Love you,

Your son Lon

2020 was a crazy year. I missed talking with you and sharing what was going on in our lives. Love you!

Remembering your laughter always makes me smile. You filled our lives with love. Your love is in our hearts forever. We love you Mom.

Thinking of you Mom and all the love and happy times. I love you.

Happy Birthday! We all love and miss you every day.

"Hi Lon, it's mom." That's how your voice message begins. I have it saved on my phone. I listen to it and it seems like we spoke just last week. Yet, here it is ... five years gone by. 
I miss you very much. I think about you a lot and remember the many fun times we had together. Ray, Jonna and I are all very thankful you were our mom.

Miss you Mom. Happy birthday!

Happy birthday Mom! Miss you every day.

Hi Mom. Happy birthday! We miss you so very much. Love you

On behalf of my sister Rosa Maria Rodriguez

Llegue a casa.
Yo sé que en un abrir y cerrar de ojos estaré contigo a tu llamado. Seré vestida de lo provisto. Me mecerás en tu viento. Paz y seguridad serán mi amparo. Cuando mires veras el sello que imprimiste en mi frente. Veré la luz de tu verdad en mi vestido. Seré fuego y llama consumida en tu hoguera. Seré agua derramada en tu fuente. Seré sangre salpicada en tu viento. Seré brillo luminiscente en tu océano. En la copa de tu árbol estaré presente. Estaré presente en nuestra cita. Y nos abrasaremos Señor Jesús por siempre. Amen.

Happy 80th birthday mom! We miss you.

l only met her twice, but something that impressed me greatly was her kindness, her smile and the way she treated us since the very beginning as part of her family. I'll always remember her!

Aunt Loretta will be greatly missed. She was always kind and had a wonderful sense of humor. We always looked forward to her and Uncle Walt coming through in their camper. Our thoughts go out to her entire family.

Ray and Lynn,
I am so sorry to hear of Loretta 's passing. I pray your grief will soften as time goes on. 
I believe I was at 2 family reunions Loretta attended. I remember how her cheerful, loving presence immediately made everyone at ease. She quickly moved from an acquaintance to the status of loved family member.
I was always impressed with her ease around children, especially her grandchildren. I also was impressed with how much you all loved her.
I know she will be missed. But I also know she was blessed by God. She will remain in your hearts and you will be comforted by the wealth of memories of this fine woman.
Love you,
Bill

Dear Ray, Lynn, Tyler & Georgia,

What a wonderful memorial to your mother, who was an amazing lady. We cherish the times we had together and the memories we made...especially the trips to Maggie Valley and also at your house 2 years ago. Our prayers are with all of you. Love, Larry & Lois

Dear Ray, Lynn, Georgia, & Tyler,
You are all in our thoughts and prayers as you celebrate Loretta's life.

Dear Uncle Walt, Ray, Lynn, Georgia, and Tyler.
We were all saddened to hear of your loss. Aunt Loretta was a very special person that we will all miss dearly. We want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and to remember all the joy and great memories Loretta brought to us all.

Walt, Lon, Jonna, & Ray,
I was saddened to hear of your loss.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
