I worked for Loren for several years while I was a student at the University of Iowa. He was a fun person to work for but also a very good friend. I am so very happy that we could get together last month with Ken Kness and talk about old times. I'm sorry I cannot get to the funeral but my thoughts and prayers are with Janet and her family. Loren was a great person and will be missed. Good to see memory postings from the Reimers and Mike Nugent.
I and my brother, Mike, respectfully and fondly remember loren as an ;understanding manager at Audio Visual who was able to instill teamwork and productivity from part-time college student employees. He was always ready to provide a ride from and to our Benton Street apartment which was greatly appreciated during the Iowa winters. Loren was a special person who will be missed by many.

I guess Loren and I spent about a quarter century of Hawkeye football Saturdays in the same room. I always enjoyed visiting with Loren in the media room at Kinnick Stadium. Many times we exchanged stories about fishing and I always enjoyed the Big Ol Fish pictures he would send me. They were usually pics of Forbes family members. God bless, my friend.
So sad to hear of Loren's passing. I always enjoyed working with him on the Ike's pancake breakfasts.
I am so sorry to hear of Loren's passing. What I great guy! And what a great family! I enjoyed working with Loren with the Iowa Wildlife Federation and the Johnson County Ikes. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
I worked with Loren at the U of I Audio Visual Center in the 80s. I had so much fun at their mile marker anniversary at the Izaak Walton League! The world lost a very nice man. May the angels come out to greet him and may God comfort Janet, his family and friends at this difficult time.

I worked with Loren back in the 60s at the University of Iowa's audio-visual department. He was just a wonderful person to know and to work for. I think of him often, and all my memories of him are good.
Sleep well, my friend.
