So sorry for your loss. I worked with her for almost 27 years. One of a kind. So generous and caring. She will be greatly missed. God bless you Lorraine.
My condolence to Jim and family. She will be missed.
A beautiful soul gone too soon. My thoughts and prayers are for the family at this difficult time.
Dot and I want to extend our condolences to Jim. I worked with Lorraine for 35 of her 44 years at EMC. She was a dedicated and hard working person, but was even a better person. I will miss her greatly. I know she in heaven and in perfect health.
Jacki and I send our prayers and condolences. I will sure miss getting to try of all her delicious recipes! Was definitely one heck of a baker for sure. She will be missed but she is with God now looking over all of you. God bless you!
