who grew up in Oakley and graduated from
Liberty High School in 1979.
“We work together, eat together, and
I’ve had their parents here for dinner. I’ve
learned so much,” said Lorenzetti, who
now lives in Antioch and owns the In Touch
Health Clinic, located inside the In-Shape
club on Lone Tree Way. “We have everything
here in this country. It makes me realize how
wealthy I am in my soul for having met these
people. (Going to the Olympics) is one of the
best achievements of my life.
“You’ll never be anywhere else where
the whole world is represented.”
Lorenzetti said that helping those less
fortunate became a goal after she gave an
athlete from South Africa $100: “He said,
‘You don’t realize what this means to me.’
He could live off that for two months.”
In addition to seeing Cavic excel at his
sport in Beijing, Lorenzetti said she wants to
fi nd another person whose life she can make
a little better.
“I’m looking forward to fi nding that
less fortunate person I can bless,” she said.
