I am sincerely saddened with the news of Loren’s passing.  Loren was a willing volunteer and a very strong supporter of the BRHS until his health prevented direct participation.  Loren had a solid knowledge of the CB&Q, especially passenger operations and we all enjoyed his meticulously modeled trains.  He participated in the Little Q club in Aurora and was the host for many BRHS Spring meets that were held at the club’s facilities.  Loren was true friend of the Burlington, the BRHS and I am proud to say one of my close friends.  He will be missed.

 

I would like to include an obituary for Loren in the next Zephyr, so if anyone has photos they would like to share, please let me know.

 

Respectfully,

 

Dave Lotz

Pooler, GA

Loren Johnson passed on March 25 at Sandwich, IL and there are no services or arrangements per his wishes, and from what I can gather his passing is being handled as a private family matter. For those who knew Loren, he was always jovial and loved the CBQ and members of the BRHS. Loren and his mother Sis, were always there to help the BRHS in what ever way they could. As Greg eluded, many evenings were spent at the Johnson residence in the early days, stuffing Zephyrs and Bulletins, and labeling envelopes for the Society. Loren also served the Society as a Board member. Loren and I go back to high school days of growing up and attending Masonic events together and then as fellow members of the Society. Unfortunately for Loren, a series of health issues interupted his attendance at Society functions, and his presence just seemed to fade away. He will be missed.

Please keep in your thoughts other Society members who have passed as well.

Respectfully,

Tom Whitt
