June 14, 1955 – November 26, 2024
With heavy hearts and profound sadness, the McClain, Smith, and Reeves families announce the peaceful passing of our beloved Loriene Vashti McClain, who transitioned from this earthly life to eternity on November 26, 2024, at Holy Cross Germantown Hospital, Maryland, USA.
Loriene was a remarkable woman, embodying love, grace, and dedication as a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. Her unwavering kindness, wisdom, and generosity touched countless lives, and her radiant presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
She leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories with her devoted husband, Sar McClain Sr., her children, Sar McClain Jr., Sasha-Loriene McClain, daughter-in-law Jessica McClain. Her pride and joy, her grandchildren Liz-Lorie McClain and Alfonso-Lee McClain, will forever carry forward her warmth and spirit. Loriene’s memory is also treasured by her siblings, nieces, nephews, relatives, numerous extended family members, and a host of life-long friends who adored her deeply.
