Lorraine was truely the "Best Loser!!"
Dear Harvey & Family,
My heart goes out to each of you at this sad, sad time!!! I had the pleasure of meeting Lorraine in 1996, when I joined a weight loss support group called, TOPS.
She welcomed me with open arms & I soon grew to love & respect her & her dedication to that club!!! She not omly attended each meeting faithfully,...she had done so for years!!!! As a matter of fact, she held the record for being a member longer than anyone else!!!
Im addition to her dedication to the club, what impressed me the most about Lorraine was,...in a group of forty plus women, meeting on a weekly basis, it's a given that there will be bickering,...but she never got involved in the politics & disagreements,...truely a first class act!!!!
I know when someone this special passes, a tremendous void is left in your lives!!! Hopefully it will bring you a little comfort knowing that, Lorraine touched many, many lives & those special attributes about her, will never die!!!
thinking of you
We were so sorry to hear of Aunt Lorraine's passing. We will not be able to attend the funeral but please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers at this time.

I'll miss you Aunt Lorraine!!
Aunt Lorraine,
I'll miss you very much and I wish I could be there to say goodbye. You were always a nice and caring great aunt. Never missed a birthday or Christmas card. I only wish we could have spent more time together. If I would have known that you've not be feeling well for a while I would have visited sooner. I will miss getting together on new years day for dinner. It won't be the same. You will never be forgotten and always be loved and missed deeply!!
Love,
