    Dear Uncle Cliff, John, Fred and families. I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Aunt Lorraine. She was such a big part of my childhood memories. I will never forget her big smile and her endearing sense of humour. I was very fortunate to have wonderful strong women as Aunts who filled a void in a liitle girls life whose mother had passed away. Thank you Dear Aunt Lorraine , rest in peace beautiful lady.! Deepest sympathies to all of you . Hugs Wilma

    Those we love remain with us, for love itself loves on,
    And cherished memories never fade because a loved one’s gone.
    Those we love can never be more than a thought apart,
    For as long as there is memory, they’ll live on in the heart.
    Thinking of you, Gary and Tammy Foster.

    In loving memory of our dear, sweet Aunt Lorraine. As a child , I so looked forward to spending time with Aunt Lorraine. She was always the life of the party (especially at the Brock gatherings). I remember her energy, her “straight forward talk”, her laughter & humour; her supportive attention to each of us & most of all, her genuine love and affection for her nieces and nephews.
    Aunt Lorraine was a very special person who gave so much of herself to all those that she loved. Aunt Lorraine will be remembered as a remarkable woman with positive energy, powerful intuition and an innate ability to heal others.We celebrate her life, her many gifts and all that she meant to her family. The beauty of a life well-lived is that it’s never forgotten.
    Love always, Connie & Kyle Brock

    …to the Brock family…
    I well remember Lorraine’s crafts and her “hands-on” abilitiy with any kind of material. I often look at an afghan, and think of her talents. May happy memories sustain you in this time of loss.

    My dear Aunt Lorraine, aunt to myself and my sister and brothers, great aunt to my daughter, dear wife to Uncle Cliff and mother to cousins John and Fred, keeper and passer on of family stories and histories, my tie to my mother and her family, and inherently a woman of independent spirit, courage and strength, a role model.
    I am so glad we have spent time together since my first memories of Christmas on the farm to our visits over the past few summers and summer picnics long ago.
    I will miss you very much but know that you still watch over us all as you always have.
    Love Christine

It;s never easy losing loved ones but your memories of time spent with her will keep her close and help get you through such a difficult and sad time. She was always friendly and nice to talk to whenever she was at the restaurant over the years. She will be missed by many.
