Loren was born on November 7, 1950, to Frank Mann and Edna Brown. He was raised in Havre by his older brother, Robert The Boy, attending school there. After high school, Loren attended Northern Montana College, receiving his associate degree in art. He went on to work all over Washington, Idaho, and Oregon as a landscaper. He also worked as a commercial fisherman for a while, but for most of his life, he was an artist. In 2004, Loren returned to Havre, and remained here until his death.

He was a kind, hard-working man who loved to be in the outdoors, especially to hunt and fish. He was a talented artist, excelling in beading, leatherwork, and wood carving. Loren was a private man who valued his personal time, but also loved to spend time with his family, and he adored and spoiled his dog, Amanda The Boy.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Edna Brown; biological father, Frank Mann; sisters Margie and Lorraine Mann; and brothers Vernon and Billy The Boy, and David and Thomas “Bumpsy” Mann.

Loren is survived by his brothers Robert The Boy (adopted Dad) of Havre and Tony Mann of Great Falls; sisters Mary Temple of Great Falls, Wilma (Kermit) Morsette of Rocky Boy, Gertrude Werk of Hays, and Francis Russette of Box Elder; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and other extended family and friends.
