Loretta Morris was born March 31, 1950 and died in November 1971, at the age of 21 years from cystic fibrosis. Her CF diagnosis did not come until she was 16 years old. In spite of her illness she enjoyed the recreation activities of horseback riding and dance, and was also an avid reader. She was attending California State University at Northridge at the time of her death and had worked part time in the University library. Not letting CF hold her back, in the last few years of her life she traveled with a good friend to Ireland. She and her sister Barbara traveled through the Pacific Northwest and to British Columbia just two months before her death.
In honor of her sister, Barbara established the Loretta Morris Memorial Fund to help people with CF engage in recreation activities that she and Loretta enjoyed, thus contributing to their health and well-being. These activities include:
Horseback Riding
Dance
Swimming
Golf
Yoga
The fund aims to focus awards in California where the Morris family lived. Barbara currently lives in Ventura, CA and administers the fund. All funds are used 100% in the form of grants, as the Cystic Fibrosis Lifestyle Foundation (CFLF) underwrites the administrative costs of the fund.
