The Tehachapi News 
Loretta (Lori) J. Owen

May 3, 1957 – Aug. 19, 2004

Lori J. Owen passed away at her parent’s home in Camarillo on Aug. 19, at the 
age of 47, after a five-year battle with cancer. 

Lori was most well-known in the Tehachapi business community as the caring and 
determined loan officer of Sanwa Bank California and longtime member of the 
Tehachapi Kiwanis Club. 

Lori was a selfless person who always thought more of what she could do for 
others than her own needs. She had an irrepressible spirit that allowed her to 
face life with all its trials and even death itself with humor and 
determination. She fought valiantly over the course of her illness and her 
laughter and wit is what was most evident. Her kindness and generosity were 
the hallmarks of her life among us. Her family and friends have lost a great 
treasure. 

Lori is survived by her son Ryan, daughters Nicole and Katie, parents John and 
Barbara Ross, brother Michael and sisters Gina, Joni and especially Lisa, who 
became Lori’s saving grace and continually helped her children throughout her 
long battle. She will be greatly missed by her many friends/co-workers and her 
dear friend Roger. 

In lieu of flowers, Lori’s wishes were that donations be made to the Dustry 
Baird Fund at Bank of the West. 

A memorial service will be held at the Church of the Nazarene, located on 
Highline Road, on Saturday, Aug. 28, at 4 p.m. A reception will be held at 
Mountain Aire Estates clubhouse on Dennison Road directly after the service.
