Obituary

Loretta Mae Kohs, 85, of Winter Park, Florida passed away on Sunday, September 1, surrounded by family.  Born in 1934 in Monroe County, Michigan, Loretta was the daughter of Leo F. Abramoski and Sophie Holler.  Loretta was married for 66 years to her beloved husband, Richard F. Kohs, with whom she had four children.  Lorrie was proud of her family, and she engaged so warmly and sincerely with people, you felt like she was a friend within just a few minutes of meeting her.  Throughout her life, she found spirituality not just in the church, but all around her.  She loved animals and nature.  She enjoyed bowling, card games, and traveling near and far.  Lorrie shined brightest when surrounded by family, music, and laughter, and her sense of humor was infectious.  Her life, throughout all its joys and challenges, was meaningful in all respects.

Loretta is survived by her husband Richard; children Karen (Carolyn) Kohs, Rick (Alicia) Kohs, David (Margaret) Kohs, and Gregory (Stephanie) Kohs; seven grandchildren Joe, Kristen, Alex, Aga, Michael, Jack, and Madeline, and her great-grandchild Morgan.  She was predeceased by her brother Leo B. Abramoski and her sister Lillian A. Monroe.  Loretta’s memorial service will be conducted on Friday morning at 10 AM, September 27, lakefront at the Mennello Museum.

    My mom will be dearly missed.  She was always happy when near the water, and she loved the mountains of North Carolina, so here's a photo of her enjoying both at Lake Lure.  Peace for you and your spirit, Mom.

    Our children and grandchildren all have fond memories of Lorrie - her great enjoyment of music and her lively and fun personality. it was always evident that she cared dearly for her family and was at her best when the children were around to sing together and listen to the guitars. We enjoyed many days together in Michigan as we were both raising families, especially Thanksgiving days at either home. Seemed to us her favorite song was 'Let there be peace on earth' and now she can rest in peace. We are blessed to have her as a sister-in-law and will always remember her love and kindness.

    Lorrie was a special neighbor for many years, a lovely lady full of life and stories, quite often about her many trips or her children. We will miss her. Freed from her suffering, she is now at peace. May eternal light shine upon her.
