Laura, I just read today that Lorraine passed away. I wish that I had known I would have been there. Lorraine and I stayed in touch until she moved to Fla. She was my good friend and the best teacher that I ever had! This is such sad news. I truly loved her. I am so very sorry for your loss. Please email me so that I can keep in touch. I am going to have a mass said for her at St. Mary's. Better yet call me 856 825 5084
