  11. Rod, Lynn and family,

    I cant believe it’s only been 11 months since I’ve met you both, I feel like I’ve known you two forever…I truly believe Loraine has never met a stranger. Loraine has been my strenght though the hards time this past year, I kept her voice mails just to listen to them when I needed a pick me up. She was and is my guardian Angel. God bless you all is this time of loss, I’m here if you need anything. She truly gave it away, and I was blessed because of it. Now it’s my turn to be an inspiration to someone.Just remember her and Mom are up there in Heaven doing a jig. I’m a stronger and better person because of Rod and Loraine.

    Lou and I were just talking about her last week. Loraine had a special place in my heart, and as we all do, we don’t show it nearly enough.

    I am so sorry to hear of Loraine’s passing. She was such a sweet wonderful lady. I looked forward to seeing her every Monday when I would go to the condo to fill her oxygen and talk about baseball. She was very dear to me and my heart is saddened for your loss. She will be missed.
