Dear Allan and all the family, It is with true sadness that we learned of your dear mother's passing last night. Although we didn't get a chance to get know Lorraine very well, we became very fond of her in the few times we did meet her at various family functions. Lorraine - a perfect lady, soft-spoken, charming, and kind. While she will be sadly missed, she will now be at rest, and reunited with your father, Lou. We know that you will all find comfort in the many memories you have of her. She will not be forgetten by anyone who knew her. Our hearts are with you. Bryna (Renee's (Daniel's) grandmother) and Paula (Renee's (Daniel's) aunt)

We have so many great memories of Lorraine (and Lou). I considered myself lucky to have such amazing people in my life and I know that Rhonda and the boys all shared the same feelings for Lorraine. She was such a classy lady, with a great smile and a warmth radiated whenever she was near. I had a great conversation with her when I was in Toronto for Marcia's unveiling and it reminded me just how special she was. May her memory truly be a blessing. We miss you Loretta Jean!
