C. Loren Nifong

April 13, 1937 - March 30, 2012

Loren Nifong, 74, passed away unexpectedly on Friday morning, March 30, 2012, at Lutheran Hospital, Fort Wayne, IN.
Born at home on April 13, 1937, Loren was the son of John Cyrus and Loretta (Harley) Nifong.
Loren graduated from West High School in 1955. He was a 10-year 4-H member and had fond memories of showing the family Holsteins regionally and at the Indiana State Fair.
Loren married his lifelong partner, Shirley J. (Johnson) Nifong in Plymouth on April 2, 1961. They were blessed with two children, Lorna (Nifong) Shively and John Nifong.
Widely known for his strong work ethic, he was a full-time livestock and crop farmer. Along with farming, Loren drove bus 50 years for the Plymouth community Schools. He loved the kids and often adopted their problems as his own. Most Saturdays found Loren either hauling kids or livestock.
Loren never knew a stranger and will be long remembered for his honesty and generosity toward others.
A man of many talents, Loren served as song leader at the Union Church of the Brethren. He was a man of strong faith who enjoyed simple things: good conversation, laughter, crops growing and calves playing.
Loren loved his children and grandchildren unconditionally. He enjoyed watching John drag race, Lorna and Taylor show horses and Jennah play basketball. He enjoyed watching the PHS band kids and was an avid boys and girls basketball fan.
He is survived by his wife, Shirley and their daughter, Lorna and son John and daughter- in-law, Kim.
His grandchildren are: Johnathan A. Nifong, Taylor Loren Shively and Jennah Diane Nifong. A great-grandson, Holten Michael Nifong survives as well.
Three brothers also survive: Larry, Ron and Ross Nifong. He was preceded in death by his parents and two nieces.
Friends are invited to share memories with his family on Tuesday, April 3, 2012, from 3 – 8 p.m. in the Johnson-Danielson Funeral Home, 1100 N. Michigan Street, Plymouth.
Funeral services for Loren will be held on Wednesday, April 4, 2012, at 11 a.m. in the Union Church of the Brethren, 10483 State Road 17, Plymouth where visitation will continue one hour prior to services. Revs. Sam Han and Brandon Schadek will officiate.
Burial will follow at New Oakhill Cemetery, Plymouth.
Memorial gifts in Loren’s memory may be made to the Church or 4H Horse & Pony Program, 114 W. Jefferson St., Plymouth, IN 46563

I will miss seeing him on the road riding his tractor and throwing up a hello as we passed by. Loren was a wonderful person and he had a heart of gold. may God hold you all close to him in your time of heartache..

    It is with both sadness and fondness that I remember the days at the Union church when Loren was a part of our little youth group. Even then, he showed his commitment to follow in the steps of Jesus. A true friend to everyone.

    My prayers are with you these days as you adjust to the suddenness of life without his physical presence. May you feel God\’s love — and Loren\’s — beaming through your sadness.

    Loren was a very nice man. Fun times riding his bus. Growing up helpping Loren bail hay and work around the farm are great times for me. After I became a grown man we always stayed in touch. And he would stop in and check up on me. He stayed on me about things to make sure I remembered how much he loved me. Loren gave me advice on naming my youngest daughter which made the best sense. He will always be in my heart. I will dearly miss him.

    I will always remember Loren, from being a lil bitty girl with my Dad and brother, to riding the bus and those tractors out on Lincoln Highway that took the whole road up in my teenage years, when you were always in a hurry and there was Loren , lol…. . He had a heart of gold and always there to help out if he could.
    My thoughts and prayers are with you the family and remember the good times, the laughter the love ~

    John, and family, Loren always kept me on my toes at the parts store. I do believe he actually trained me to do my job now serving the farmers of LaPorte county. I\’ll surely miss him.

    Nifong Family,

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Both Derek and I remember Loren when we were students at West and he drove bus. Our recent memories of Loren consisted of visiting with him while watching our daughter, Bailey, and Jennah play basketball. I also enjoyed our conversations when he drove for 6th grade volleyball while I was coaching. He will be missed.
