My condolences to Lorrain’s family.
We talked a lot over the years and
although she herself was sick she always
checked on me. She was a special friend
and she will be missed by many.
I am glad she is walking in Heaven with no more sickness. RIP My Dear Friend. ️

Lorraine was a beautiful lady with a beautiful heart. We talked weekly. She was always checking on me, Morgan and Brie. Brie thought of her as her grandma and Jim, her papa on hers dad's side of the family. A truly beautiful lady inside and out that suffered being sick for way to long but even sick always had a hug and let us know she loved us as we did her. Will be missed here but will be a beautiful angel in Heaven! R.I.P. sweet lady️

Lorraine was always such a precious woman. She would do anything for anyone and I never knew her to anything but kind. She is missed but I am thankful she is in God’s arms and no longer in pain. Love always, Jessika and family

My memories of Lorrain is of her scurrying around the post when she and Jim were canteen managers. Two of the hardest workers. Jim always had something special going on to draw a crowd and Lorrain was having to run to keep up with his long legs. It was such a tragedy and such a great loss when she took sick. But through out her sickness when she could come out she was still the sweetest uplifting person I the room. Young lady you earned a rest, now enjoy it, tell everyone we said hello and remember we won't be far behind you.
Romans 8:18
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

Lorrain , was my neighbor for a few years but someone who I could always call my friend. Many fond memories of raising our kids next door to one another. I especially remember the time Mikey and Kory got missing but we soon found them. We had a lot of fun down by the pond watching them swim and play together. I wish we could go back to those years. I am so sorry she has left so soon. Love and Prayers to you all.

I remember when I first met Loraine. A beautiful girl with a sweet smile. Rest In Peace dear girl. My condolences to you Jim, and family.

Lorrain was such a great friend to me in high school, we had some great times. We spoke a few months back and she reminded me that my mother got her to eat cornbread and milk for the first time, and she loved it. Always such a sweet lady, told me she loved me even though we had not spoken in years. Life takes you in different directions but she was always in my mind and heart. Fly high Lady!! Love you my sweet friend. Prayers go out to all her family.

Lorrain was one of sweetest women I know. She was beautiful inside and out. She loved everyone, especially her family. Rest In Peace Dear Friend until we meet again. Prayers lifted up for Jim & his family for peace & comfort. Love, Ron & Deb
