> together.

> years, she was an active Paine Art Center and Gardens volunteer, and an

> long-time and active member of the Mercy Hospital Auxiliary. Most Blessed
> Sacrament Parish, familiarly known as St. Mary’s, also appreciated her
> volunteer efforts.

> Mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great grandmother, aunt,
> great-aunt, great-great aunt: Lorraine is that and much more.
>
> Lorraine is a friend and compatriot to many. She so enjoyed the many and
> various friendships she forged throughout her life. Her sense of humor and
> zest for life made her an active participant in her surroundings throughout
> her many decades. She blossomed wherever she was planted.
>
> Lorraine is sorely missed by all who know her and love her.
>
> In her final days, she was supported by the loving ministrations of Affinity
> Hospice.
