Frederick Lorne Watt

In Loving Memory of Frederick “Lorne” Watt FREDERICK “LORNE” WATT passed peacefully, surrounded by love, after a courageous journey with ALS. He lived a life filled with honor, unmistakable strength, deep compassion, and unwavering devotion to those he loved most. Lorne was a proud United States Marine, and the values of duty, loyalty, and courage were not simply ideals he carried—they were principles he lived out loud. His strength was evident in how he led, protected, provided, and loved. He met life head-on, with conviction, resilience, and an unshakable sense of purpose. He dedicated many years of service to General Mills, where his leadership was respected and his presence was felt. Known for his strong work ethic, decisive nature, and genuine care for people, Lorne built meaningful relationships and left a lasting impact on every team he served. Above all else, Lorne was a devoted husband, father, and family man. He shared a profound and enduring love with his wife, Leticia—one rooted in resilience, rediscovery, and a deep soul connection that spanned decades. Their journey together was marked by adventure, laughter, tenderness, and an unbreakable bond. Lorne was immensely proud of his children and the lives they are building. He is survived by his beloved children, Shataria, Xavier, Bria, and from his union with Leticia, his beloved bonus children, Se Airra, Haley, and Morgan, each carrying forward his strength, values, and unmistakable spirit; devoted sister, Alethea; and cherished parents, Essie and Parris, whose love and guidance shaped the man he became. Survived by the Dillard Family. In his final chapter, Lorne faced ALS with extraordinary courage and dignity. Though the disease challenged his body, it never diminished his will, clarity, or voice in the ways that mattered most. He remained strong, intentional, and deeply present, leaving behind a legacy of resilience, love, and self-determination. Frederick “Lorne” Watt will be remembered for his commanding presence, fearless love, and the strength that defined him.
