Lorna was an intelligent woman graduating with a bachelor's degree in accounting in the Philippines. She was devoted to her faith. 

In the year 2001, she made one of the greatest sacrifices a mother can make- leave the place she called home and live the American dream to give her daughters a better life and a brighter future. Through her hard work and dedication, she completed her Bachelor's in Science with her children alongside her. Lorna was a devoted Director of Nursing touching the lives of all she came across. Lorna became a mentor, a leader, and an inspiration to all. Lorna devoted her life to give endlessly and tirelessly. Lorna was a woman who rarely complained and persevered through every obstacle that came her way. Her journey was not easy, but she carried her family in her heart every step of the way. Lorna always put the needs of others above her own. She loved to travel and brought her family members to the utmost of her ability.
