A great granddaughter

I was younger when I met you but the memories were great me and dad drive by your house sometimes when we're in the area. Dad says every once in a while a coin or two drops off his body. He says he thinks it's you. Right after your son (Frank) passed, we've been seeing my LEDs turn blue. I hope you two are thriving together wherever you are.

Dear Mom Reisinger,
I can't believe it's been a year since you left
us. I miss you so much but I take comfort in
all of the words of wisdom that you gave to me over the years.
You were the best friend ever & my surrogate Mom for over 40 years. I hope you know how missed & love you are.

Lorraine and I were best friends in junior high school and high school. Even after marriage, we and our young families lived next door to each for several years. When my family and I moved to the east coast Lorraine and I kept in touch with letters, cards and occasional visits. I will miss my best friend.
My condolences to her boys and their families.

Lorraine and I were high school classmates - we met again in the 80's while standing in line for a class at S.F. State. By that time we were both single with children - we had great luncheons talking about growing up in San Francisco, college days, Army life, children, travel, politics. I shall miss her.

Dear Reisingers,
Lorraine was like a Mother to me. I am so glad
that she lived such a full life with her boys.
I do believe she's in a better place having a ball
with that wonderful belly laugh she had. I was so
lucky to have made her laugh whenever we talked.
I will always remember her in my heart.
