Into Paradise…May the Angels…Lead Her. Loretta Loveall, 60, passed away on July 21, 2016 after a brief illness. She was born in Ottawa, Illinois and moved to the Central Coast with her family in 1958, where she lived out her remaining years. She worked for Raytheon in Santa Barbara, California for 35 years before retiring in 2010.

Anyone who knew her, knew she liked to be outdoors and active. From Pony-Tail softball in her youth, to playing on a women's soccer league in her 30's. She enjoyed fishing, working in her garden and was on several bowling leagues which often led her to compete at the state and local level. She loved whatever she was a part of and was good at it. She was a generous and kind person, but never ask her the truth if you didn't want to hear it. She was funny that way.

She is survived by her husband, John Vasquez; and the Vasquez family of Santa Barbara. Her only sister, Kristie Loveall-Rowe, of Stockton, California; an Aunt Pana Chico, Albequerque, New Mexico. She is preceded in death by her mother, Marcella Loveall, her maternal grandmother, Anita Delte; her aunt and uncle Patricia and Stanley Steinbach and uncle Gabriel Zucker.

Per her request, there will be no services. There will be a celebration of life reception to be held at the Lompoc Elks Lodge on July 30, 2016 from 12 pm to 5 pm.
