My thoughts and love are with the family - Lorraine was like a second mother to me - so many wonderful memories growing up; Charlene remains my dear friend after all these years - Lorraine could make us laugh and bring us to joyous tears! I always loved to visit with her. I truly loved her and she will be missed.

Dave and Char. So sorry to hear your mom has passed away. I have not seen either one of you in years but think of you both remembering times growing up in the Heights. I lost my mom five years ago this month and I know how hard it is. May you find comfort in your memories of your mom. Most sincerely Jackie (Klobucher) Rosenberg

I'm so sorry to learn of your Mothers' passing, Charlene. She was a very kind and generous woman and she will be greatly missed. To this day, I can't pick up a crochet hook without thinking of her and her patience in teaching a 12 year old the basics. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you now.

Now she can rest in peace. She has joined Charlotte and Leo and is smiling down on all of us. I remember the years she taught me stitches in crochet and crocheted me a vest when they were so popular in the 70s! We remember the times we all sat on the porch visiting during our weekend visits. Most of all though, she was the continued support for Vern (Pete) over the years and we love and miss her.

Barb, David , Charlene and family: So sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I have many fond memories of Aunt Lorraine. She always welcomed us into her home. We enjoyed our many visits over the years. She had a wonderful happy laugh and the gift of hospitality. She loved when people came to visit. She had a strong faith and I can only imagine what a joyful reunion awaited her as she continued her journey into eternity. Love to you all. Sue & John
