I am so very sorry for the passing of Lorraine. She was a character that is not to be forgotten in any manner. Lorraine will always live on in our memories as the friendly, fun loving and all around great person that she was. We all know that she is now looking down on us laughing that laugh of hers and saying something out of color about someone, but that is what we loved about her. May she be happy and pain free where she is now and may all she left behind learn to live a happy life knowing that she is.
