My heart is so sad! I have wonderful memories of summer dinners in the back yard and trips to Donner lake and enjoying her ham and cheese sandwiches! Lorraine was always so inviting and welcoming to her home growing up. Showing us how to cover our text books in elementary school. I pray she is resting in Love and my deepest condolences to Shar, Mar, Gary and Shorty. Amber and I love you guys
