Loren passed away from cancer on March 29, 2020 with his wife of 53 years, Pam, his two sons, Loren Jr. and Tim, in attendance.  Loren was a charter member of the Napa Valley Cruisers...loving old cars and having restored a Chevy 2-door hardtop himself.  He enjoyed attending Hot August Nights for a number of years and was a member of the Native Sons of the Golden West for 49 years.  Loren was stationed at Camp Lejeune in NC...was sent on a Med cruise with the 6th Fleet and later to Viet Nam.  Always proud of his military service, Loren taught his sons that our freedom is not free...and he lived by the idea that "once a Marine, always a Marine".  Services for Loren will be held when it is safe from Covid 19...watch for announcement from Pam.
