Loren loved to fish and spent a lot of his free time fishing for albacore, rock cod, halibut, bass, lobster and many other types of fish from his boat, either in the San Diego Bay or in the Pacific Ocean. He also got into digging for clams in the local beaches around San Diego. Loren also enjoyed going to Utah or Arizona and fishing for trout. He continued to fish into his late 80’s.
There will be a reception to follow at the home of Janet Mazzarella.
