Lorene worked many years in local textile factories and retired from her daily work at Tecumseh Manufacturing in Dunlap, TN. Everyone who was close to Lorene, knew the word "Retired" was not in her being. In her later years, she was a special caretaker and housekeeper to many wonderful elderly friends whom she loved and took care of tenderly. She loved working outdoors in the yard and taking care of the lawn with her zero-turn mower, of which she thought was the greatest thing ever! She loved her many pets (both cats and dogs) throughout her entire life and took care of them just as well as her family. Lorene enjoyed quilting and just fixing things in general. If you ask her what her hobby would be, she would say, "outside doing something". It was never considered work to her, but enjoyment. She kept her family close and made sure all were taught the Bible and ways of the Lord. She took her children to church until they became adults of their own. She will be greatly missed among her family, friends, and neighbors. Funeral services will be held Tuesday, July 6, at 1:00 pm CDT in the funeral home chapel with Pastor Shane Nivens officiating, Burial will be in the Richard Harvey Cemetery on Lewis Chapel Mountain, Dunlap, TN.
