To celebrate a remarkable long life well-lived. With fond memories of Betty’s (& Barb & Lauren) last visit with us in Oregon.. to spend time with her sister-in-law Joan, when Joan was very ill. As a young lad, Joe remembers how cute Betty was, thought she was Marilyn Monroe… dated, then married his big brother, Larry. So many fun stories to share.
FAMILY…. hug each other tightly.
Long distance hugs, much love,
Joe & Shari Lobenstein
Kathy and family…may you find peace in the knowledge that your loved one has found rest and peace.

There are many of us long time residents of Adams-Friendship that have countless memories of Larry&Betty Lobenstein and their family. Mine go back my parents taking us to visit when they raised turkeys, many, many years ago. Our condolences to Barb, Mike, Lori, Nancy and their respective families.
