Dear Dee Dee and Family, I am so sorry to read about Rainy's passing. I recognized her pretty smile right away. It just seems like yesterday how the 4 of us would stampede in on her in the bedroom that the two of you shared as kids. I don't know of any words that can ease your pain but justed wanted to let you know that I was thinking about you. Love Debbie

Frank and Andy,
No words can express our deep sorrow for the loss of Lorraine. It seems like just yesterday that we were enjoying the growth of our two young boys. While we may not have visited each other as much as we would have liked, we have cherished many moments over the years. We will sadly miss her and will hold her dearly in our hearts.

Dee Dee and Family,
So sorry to hear of Rainy's passing. I know no words to ease the loss, except I remember her young and healthy. She lives on in my memory just that way.
I cannot attend as I am with Luke for the weekend and just heard the news. Please accept my deepest condolences.

I had the pleasure of meeting Lorraine when she brought her mother for some hair appointments, In just a few minutes, I felt like I knew her for a long time---her smile and positive attitude were a blessing in my day. She was also so kind in updating me on her mothers condition. I'm sure she touched many lives and will be greatly missed. May God keep all of you in His loving arms.

Frank and Andy:
I am so sorry for your loss and passing of Lorraine. The short time that I work along side of Lorraine were some of the best years of my postal career. As Frank Sinatra sang ~ Sweet Lorraine ~ she surely was. May all the good thoughts of people that have crossed her path bring you comfort in your time of loss.
