Loraine was an amazing wife, mother, grandmother & great-grandmother. She was a devoted catholic.  Her love and devotion to God and her faith inspired so many to do the same. Her connection with her family members and non-family members, through the many different ways she spent time with them, grew people closer to her throughout her whole life.

Loraine spent a life of love and never failed to radiate a positive light to all who needed it. Gone but never forgotten. She enjoyed playing cards with her family & loved to dance.

Although she had many setbacks in life, Loraine was a strong fighter until the end. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. She will live in our hearts and memories forever!
