Lorraine Lillian Fabio

Lorraine´s big hearty exuberant hospitality welcomed our whole family in!! Fond, fond memories are rising now. Relaxing and splashing in the St. Croix River--invited guests on her boat as the sun set. She made us (and everyone!) feel like family. I can still hear her hearty chortle! Mischievous and fun! I especially remember her, with a twinkle in her eye, explaining why she loved the music of Andrea Boccelli! I´ll always remember Lorraine coming out to visit us in Colorado, and cooking up a storm! A true Italian zesty storm of pasta and homemade sauce! The marinara sauce in a giant pot on our stove--so big, she had to combine onto a stool so she could reach in and stir! Then, some of the sauce transformed into it the most phenomenal Vodka Cream Sauce--and of course, she insisted we invite all our friends to sidle up and enjoy! That was Lorraine--loving on us, and really, zestily loving on the whole world. I was going to say that the world´s a little less bright now that she´s gone-but you know, I don´t think so--since she lives on in all whose lives she touched and that, I´m absolutely sure, was so very many! So, Lorraine--we will miss you. We know you´re at peace now. Maybe cooking up a big pot of pasta and serving it up in heaven for all to share. The Big Host Table! I bet there is music playing, and LOVE flowing--your signature touch, no matter what! ~Lynn Young, Colorado Springs

A beautiful lady. I was lucky to get to know son "Pat" in the last couple of years. Treasure your memories with her.
