Loreen Ridge-Husum was born and raised on the Atlantic side of the former Canal Zone territory, Isthmus of Panama. Her ancestors moved to the Canal Zone as early as 1908 and held various jobs relating to the construction and operation of the Panama Canal. Loreen attended Cristobal High School, where she was the yearbook editor and a member of the National Honor Society. Loreen earned a B.A. Degree in Mass Communications at Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC. While attending Winthrop, she worked on the student newspaper as a typist, news editor, and managing editor, and wrote press releases as a student assistant for the Winthrop Public Affairs Office. During her college years, Loreen's father retired and moved away from the Canal Zone due to the reduction in force (RIF) of U.S. employees as a result of the Treaty with Panama in the late 1970s. She returned to her homeland 36 years later, shortly after the canal expansion was completed. In the meantime, she raised a daughter and a son, both born in the United States. Loreen is married to Ed Husum's brother Ray. At Ray's encouragement, Loreen returned to school in 2016 to study Graphic Design at Greenville Technical College, graduating with honors in December 2018. Loreen is a Visual Arts tutor at Greenville Tech and a member of the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA). She is also a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and serves as the yearbook editor of her local DAR chapter. She and Ray live in West Pelzer, South Carolina, where she enjoys gardening, genealogy, and the perpetual pursuit of design inspiration.

Edward J. Husum III was born in Ancon, Canal Zone, to Edward J. Husum, Jr., and Ellen Foley Husum. His maternal grandfather was Roosevelt Medal holder Thomas P. Foley, who was hired as a Canal Zone Police Officer in 1912, and was from Ireland and who saw the Panama Canal open in 1914. Ed is one of 11 siblings. He grew up in the town of Balboa and attended St. Mary's Parochial School, Curundu Junior High, and Balboa High, graduating in 1972. While in high school, Ed was the cartoonist for his school newspaper, the "Parakeet". Ed left the Canal Zone in 1976 and moved to Tallahassee, Florida, where he attended Lively Technical Institute, graduating in Residential Building, and became a carpenter. He has traveled extensively in his life, residing in most of Central and South America, using his carpentry to help the poor and doing work for a nonprofit organization. Ed now resides in Tallahassee with his wife, Ruth, and their son, John. He enjoys working with his hands and renovating old homes, traveling, painting, and playing the guitar.
