I worked with Lorraine at Brookfield East High School. She was always such a big help when she came in, we were always glad to see her. She was a lot of fun, always smiling and a very kind person. It was a pleasure to know her. I pray for time to heal your sad hearts.

Please accept my sincere condolences. I remember Lorraine and all of you fondly.

So many memories of Loraine and her kindness. I wish I could express more of my memories and feelings, but know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

TI will always hold fond memories of Lorraine and the way she always welcomed me at yor home. With her generous spirit, as a child I thought of her as a second mother, who always made time for her kids. I know her family was her joy, pride and comfort. With deepest sympathy, for your entire family.
