Loren owned Regal Photography and loved his work with photography and working with the people he photographed. He was active in many community and school projects.

Loren had many talents; all of which he used to bring glory to God. He was a gifted speaker, musician, and songwriter. He attended Mt. Olive Church all of his life and for the past several years was the lay speaker, worship leader, and a Sunday school teacher. He received a Masters of Divinity degree, but continued as a lifetime student of the Bible. He was a minister, counselor, and friend to many. He touched countless lives. He was a devoted son, brother, husband, friend, and a loving and dedicated father to his beloved children. The family can draw comfort that he is now in the presence of Jesus, whom he loved most of all.

Family will receive friends on Tuesday from 2-4 & 6-8 p.m. at Grisell Funeral Home & Crematory, 751 Third St., New Martinsville, where services will be held on Wednesday at 11 a.m. with Mark Roberts officiating.

Interment will follow in Mount Olive Cemetery, Sardis, OH.
