As Minister and personally, and on behalf of the Secular Franciscan Order (formerly known as the 3rd Order), and St. Joseph Fraternity, in which Loretta was a member for over a half century, we offer our sincerest condolences to our sister Loretta's entire family. Loretta was my Formation Director when I entered in the Order and she holds a special place in my heart. St. Francis embraced "Sister Death" and I know that St. Francis, with Jesus and Mary, and her special saint Odelia, ushered our sister to her eternal reward. Peace and all good Loretta. Pray for us.
