The adjectives listed perfectly describe Lorraine. She was truly the personification of kindness and generosity. A few weeks before Thanksgiving she would ask, "What are you doing for the holiday? Don't be alone. Come over to our house and have dinner with us." We spent a number of July 4ths and other holidays with Lorraine and her family and we cherish the memories of them all. A good friend and a good person. We will miss her so very much. Bob and Susan
