She went to Madison Technical College for auto mechanics, carpentry, she obtained a paralegal certificate and dabbled in cosmetology school. The word of God took precedence in her daily life. She loved to spread the word and would give bibles to all her loved ones. She was a true prayer warrior and was always praying for someone in need. She was very blessed to have such a big family with many friends and relatives.
The light of her life was her grandchildren with the miracle of great grandchildren. She always made sure her family was well taken care of and she could lift up a person’s spirits bringing sunshine to a cloudy day. She was known for her incredible sense of HoChunk humor and made many people laugh.
Loretta is survived by her children, Anthony (Rebecca) Decorah Welsh, Patrick Patterson, Daniel Perez and Thomasa (Gilbert) Chavez; brothers, Parmenton Decorah, Joseph (Lona) Decorah and Francis (Roberta) Decorah; grandchildren, Cheyenne and Aiden Welsh, Xavier and Jamieson Patterson, Katelynn Cantwell, David Patterson, Zhane and Julian Berg, Rene and Roman Martinez, Azrael Chavez, Shelby Perez and Angelina Baker; great grandchildren, Josiah, Jamieson and Hazel Patterson and Therese and Aurora Escobar; and her faithful and loyal 4 legged companion, Buttons.
