Lorn and Mona Faye were the best neighbors ever. Both were giving and kind and always willing to help me out. Randy and Janice... I know you will feel lost for a time but you should take pride in the wonderful parents you had and the heritage they left you.
Karen, I am glad you came into Lorn's life. You provided love and companionship. Thank you for caring for him . I am only now hearing of this. I would have come down. I enjoyed our last visit.
May God bless you all and smile when you think of Lorn...a truly good man.
