Lorraine was very outgoing and was always up for having a good time.

Lorraine was incredibly blessed to have the friendship, care, and support of her late best friend Jane Publow’s family. From family parties, to birthday celebrations, to afternoons out to grab a bite to eat, Lorraine was always included. Lorraine was an honorary auntie to Jane’s family and was incredibly loved. Jane’s daughter, Tish, was exceptionally kind to Lorraine and provided so much comfort to her during her final days.
