Dear Ian, Heather, and Jacob My deepest condolences to you on this loss of dear Lorraine. She was such a beautiful person. A woman of deep faith and a faithful, wonderful friend. I will always be grateful for the way that she helped my uncle and me to feel at home, for the 8pm Terraces walks, talks and celebrations, and her wisdom. She was so very proud of you and spoke so lovingly of you. May her memory be a blessing.

Heartfelt condolences from our entire family on the passing of your dear mother. She was a best friend to my late mother, Clara Green, for many years, and always asked about our children, each one by name. I last spoke to Lorraine a few months ago and she still asked about the children, now all grown with families of their own. May her memory be for a blessing, and may you be comforted among the mourners of Tzion v'Yerushalayim.

I'm so sorry to hear of Lorraine's passing. She was a wonderful, close friend of my mother's [Thirza Kammer] at The Terrace; I got to know her well whenever I visited my Mom. We'd have celebrations together in the lobby on many occasions [Lorraine and her friends would always include me]. My deepest condolences to all of you; may her memory be a blessing

I was very sorry to hear about Lorraine's passing. My sincerest sympathy to her family. I had the good fortune of getting to know Lorraine, a lovely, warm, friendly lady, when she lived across from my mother, Frances Ittleman, on the 6th floor of The Terraces.

Lorraine was my mother Rhoda Kulman’s cousin and friend. Over the years my mother and Lorraine maintained a strong bond and when they were not able to visit in person they communicated regularly on the telephone. Lorraine and Abe celebrated with our family at many simchas. It was always a pleasure to be together and chat and reminisce with them. Lorraine was kind, sincere and generous of spirit. She was always the go-to in family matters, especially in matters of family lineage. Our sincere condolences to the Ringel family. May her memory be for a blessing.

Lorraine was the most gentle and sweetest woman and best mother-in-law one could have. When I visited her in September she asked me about each and every one in my life today, though we hadn't spoken in years. I remember her huge jars of Mandelbroit that were always waiting for me to take home at Friday night dinners long ago. Ian, my surrogate brother, Mops will always be with us!

I was so sorry to hear of Lorraine's passing. She was a wonderful neighbour and friend to my aunt who passed away in May 2020. I had many lunches and conversations with Lorraine - what a special human being. My deepest condolences to the family.

Paul Fox & Family

My heartfelt condolences to the Ringel family. The Fox's and Ringel's lived next door to each other on Dinan Street for decades and so our two families got to know each other quite well over those years. As the friendship between Ian and I grew, so did my familiarity with Lorraine and Abe. I also had the priviledge of spending one or two winter vacations in Century Village as an invited guest of the Ringel family. Some incredible memories. Lorraine was a wonderful, soft-spoken, patient, good-natured class act. And what can I say about her cooking .... she would put on a mean spread of good Jewish cooking. How lucky I was to be able to enjoy a few home cooked meals by Lorraine Ringel. Ian, you are blessed to have enjoyed your mother for so many decades. She lived a long full life. She will be missed by all who were fortunate enough to have enjoyed her presence.

Mrs. Ringel was an incredible lady. Growing up on Old Orchard Grove, the Ringels were one of the familiar families, both in shul and in the neighbourhood. Though we hadn't seen each other in years, , when we last met (just before COVID) Mrs. Ringel asked about my family, and we reminisced; she remembered all of us. After a lovely, unhurried chat, I came away in awe, privileged to have glimpsed my childhood neighbourhood through her adult eyes. May her memory always be a blessing. Hamakom yinachem etchem b'toch she'ar avlei Tzion v'Yerushalayim.

Without a doubt, the most genuine person I have ever met. I will never forget the many conversations that I had with Lorraine. It was truly a pleasure to be able to call her a friend. I will miss the evening meetings in the lobby with Connie, Thirza, Ethel and Lorraine. They don't make them like her anymore. But I got to know one!

To Ian and family, My condolences on you loss of your Mother. I new your parents well and I recall that they were were both very wonderful and giving people. As neighbours growing up on Dinan Street we shared many special times growing up together. May her memory be a blessing for you and I hope you will be comforted by the many, many years with her. I learned of her passing this evening from another Dinan Street alumnai while sitting shiva for of my father and I wanted to reach out to express my sincere condolences on your loss. Jeff Pearlston
