Lorraine will always be remembered for her love of family.  Seeing her grandchildren always brought an ear to ear smile to her face.  She was our family matriarch keeping us all together by keeping us current on each other's lives.   At 86 yrs. of age she mastered the iPad and played Scrabble with her daughter every day.

She loved cooking and was always investigating new recipes right up to the very end!  She made a mean bloody mary that no one in the family could duplicate.

And oh how she loved beauty!  She loved to be surrounded by the beauty of flowers - especially daffodils! Her weekly calendar included socializing  especially playing bridge three times a week and attending Friday night happy hours.  While wintering in Florida she delighted at the beauty of the beach and the ocean as well as dancing.
