Connie and family I was saddened to read that your sister has passed away. You have my deepest sympathy. May God Bless you and yours. Liz and Tom
Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family with Loretta’s passing. I have known Loretta since 1970 when I first started in them mill. She was my “Happy Hooker” on the loading dock for a couple of years before I moved to California in 1977. When I came home to Weirton we always called and kept in touch with Christmas cards. She will be missed. I have lost a good friend but she is in a better place at this time. God Bless!
