Born in Roanoke, VA on November 21, 1949, he was preceded in death by his father, Mosie Palmer Lovern and mother Margaret King Lovern. He was also preceded in death by two brothers, Mark Ellis Lovern and Michael Patrick Lovern.

A devoted husband of 57 years, a loving father and a devout Christian, Maurice is survived by his wife, Trudy Lovern, his three sons, Chris Lovern (Amy), Kent Lovern (Whitney), Eric Lovern (Cathy), one brother, Wayne “Meredith” Lovern (Sue), a sister, Marianna Wilmoth (Richard), and 6 grandchildren, Baylee Stanfield (Darren), Zack Lovern (Bailey), Mason Lovern, Kaiden Lovern, Chyler Lovern, Graysen Lovern, and step grandchildren Maddie, Olivia (Matt), Carly, Ryan (Hunter) and Kenzie (Jackson) and a sweet little great grand baby Weston “Sweet Cheeks” of whom he loved dearly.

Maurice attended Dan River High School where he received his high school diploma. He was last employed as a Property Manager with Phillips Edison and Co. until retirement in 2001 due to failing health. He also served in the National Guard and was a former member of the Danville Life Saving Crew.

He spent countless days sitting in his chair with his dog Lexi whom he loved. Above all of his accomplishments, the most important thing to him was family.
