Not sure what to say?

Has it been a year already. Still missed totally by the close Nason Family. Dearly Missed, 3/14/2024.

Judy and Pam and family, so sorry for losing your Mom. She was the sweetest lady, always with a smile. Our families go back a long way, l mostly use to see her in church, my mom and dad were great friends with your parents lots of fun memories. Will keep you all in my prayers Love Joe and Kathy (Wood) Burgwinkle

Lorraine was a totally wonderful person, and a friend of the Nason Family, from the most early days.
This also from David Nason in Maine. WE All Loved that Lorraine.

Judy so sorry for your loss! Peace and comfort my friend!

She was a special person who always did nice things for everyone she knew.

Lorraine was my dad's first cousin. I remember going to her house and enjoying her hospitality and her great food. She always had a smile on her face. She will be missed.

I just know from reading your life story,that you were a sweet Angel. I know your family will miss you. Memories will forever be in their hearts.

Lorraine personifies the rule, “Love thy neighbor as thyself”. She was the most generous, joyful and friendly person I have ever known. For over 50 years she has been our next door neighbor and gift to us all. Her cooking and cookies are legendary. She singularly brought the neighborhood together by having parties and inviting everyone, she treated everyone like family. I was in awe of her, working in her garden, mowing/raking well into her 80’s. Wonder Woman. Christmas won’t be the same...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. With my deepest condolences. Kathy

BOYLSTON

Lorraine Mae (Linenkemper) Nosek of Boylston, Massachusetts, devoted wife to Edward Nosek (deceased) and beloved daughter of Herman and Ethel Linenkemper, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 17, 2023 at the age of 91, surrounded by family and friends.

She was a loving mother to her daughters, Judith Dyer, Pamela Collins and her son James Nosek (deceased).

The proud grandmother of six grandchildren, Benjamin Nosek (Julie), Michael Collins (Erin), Lisa Blaney (Patrick), Andrew Dyer (Renee), Laura Dyer (Andrew), and Jonathan Dyer.

Lorraine was blessed with eleven great grandchildren, Andy Collins, Maddie Blaney, Maddox Nosek, Evan Dyer, Jack Blaney, Mila Nosek, Cody Dyer, Julien Dyer, James Dyer, Connor Collins, and Owen Dyer.

She was best known to her family and friends as Ma. A typical and joyous day for Ma would be cooking a Polish dish such as golumpkis, canning, baking desserts, and making homemade jams.

Ma and her husband, Eddie, built their home from the foundation up, a safe-haven for all. She loved to host parties, celebrating the lives of her family and every holiday. Family and friends gathered around the kitchen table talking and enjoying the fruits of her labor. She would cook for days, and she was radiant as she welcomed all.

Ma was a wonderful soul, blessed with a listening ear, a beautiful smile, and a refreshing sense of humor. Her humility and grace were present in her service to others.  She lived a life filled with simplicity, yet boundless in riches that only kindness and generosity toward others can bring.

A Funeral Mass will be held at 11am on Thursday, March 23, 2023 at St. Mary of the Hills Church, 630 Cross St., Boylston, MA. Burial will follow at St. John’s Cemetery in Lancaster, MA. Arrangements are under the care and direction of McNally & Watson Funeral Home, 304 Church St., Clinton, MA.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Ma’s honor to Yes We Care, 55 Illinois St, Worcester, Ma 01610 (yeswecarema.org) or Paws Cat Shelter 240A Route 171, Woodstock, Ct 06281 (woodstockcats.org).
