I always loved meeting Lorraine. We had many memories from years ago and Lorraine always had a smile and a laugh. You will be missed by many and I will personally miss you.

Aunt Lorraine- your smiling face and laughter will be missed. Not having my mother around I always felt a closeness to you. I will always remember thanksgiving dinner at your house and feeling this is the way that families should spend it. Hanging out at yours and Grammies house was special growing up. You will be missed but I know you are no longer in pain. Love Marlene and family
