I was so sorry to read of Lorraine&&single&&s passing. It has been a long time and miles between us for many many years but I am feeling so sad for you the family.
Lorraine and I spent a lot of time together as we grew up and in high school and often thought we should have renewed our friendship. She sang at my wedding, in the fifties.
May she rest in peace and be free of pain. May all your pleasant memories help to carry you through this sad time. I am sorry I can not attend her service Saturday but my prayers will be with you.
