Lorraine and I were bound to be friends through the people we knew in common..then she became one of my dearest friends. She was always with a smile and a kind word. I will always cherish our friendship. I know she's an angel in heaven right now because she was one here on earth. God bless you Lorraine and thank you for your friendship .

I've known Lorraine for approximately 25 years. We would have conversations every morning when at work. I enjoyed her carefree outlook on life and her thought provoking analysis of life. She will truly be missed.
