Read MoreThis past year was our first year in California and at Hope Lutheran. Lorraine was such a wonderful person and pianist. We will miss her very much when we return to California this year.

What a lovely lady Lorraine was. She was always so kind to Jim and I,and so enthusiastic about using my Dad's music. When my Jim was ill, she kept sending the cards and notes. Jim loved 'ladies', and Lorraine was a truly lovely lady.

Dearest Hans and family
Dan and I were very sad by the loss of Lorraine. Dan and I and the boys will always remember her playing the organ. She always had a wonderful smile while playing the organ and always waved to us and never missed a note. Lorraine and her music will be greatly missed.
May you find peace and comfort knowing how much Lorraine and her music touched so many . Dan & Roberta Murphy and boys (Palm Desert, Ca)
