I had the pleasure of taking care of Loretta when she was at waynesburg healthcare and rehab. I talked to her about my wedding that was coming up in Oct and she told me funny story about her and her husband. She told me to hold on to all the memories that were to come with my marriage bc one day that´s all we have. She was a very kind and wise woman. Her words still hold onto me till this day and I think they always will. My condolences to the family.

I am so sorry to hear this news but I am sure my mother was waiting at the Pearly Gates to welcome her home. I love the obituary, especially
"generous to a fault, never met a stranger!" So true! Your family will be in our prayers.

To Lou and Karina,
My condolences to you and your families. I had the pleasure of working with your mother for a few years in the law office. She was such a fun, warm and beautiful person. She also had a great sense of humor and I am blessed to have met her. She was very proud of her children.

Mrs Dayich was very motherly to me during my teenage years having lost my mother at age 14. She provided a home away from home with a warm house and an abundance of food and kindness. She and Lou were cheap entertainment with their sitcom like relationship. Many fun stories were born through the years. I appreciated her sense of humor and energy. She was a friend of some of my adult family. Of course with the nurturing side I had to be a part of disciplinary side of Mrs Dayich particularly the time Lou and I barrowed his dad´s car at age 13. We drifted it down the road with the engine off so that we would go unnoticed. It may have been the squealing tire noises that alerted Loretta as we took the turn in front of her house on what seemed like 2 wheels. We drifted the car quietly back in the driveway only to find Loretta waiting behind the hedges for us. It was good that Lou was ahead of me because he took the brunt of the head shots. Of we were threatened with jail time in the heat of the moment lol.
It was a blessing to be a part of Mrs Dayich´s life.
I´m a sure she will receive rewards in heaven for her kindness to others.
Peace be to my good friend Lou and Karina.
