Guestbook

  1. My favorite memory of Aunt Lorraine occurred this past spring, when I was home to visit my brother, Mike . We had gone to the nursing home to see her. As I approached her chair from behind, and slowly faced her, she stared for a second and said You just shocked me! in her sweet southern voice. We shared our last conversation, and my brother, who is always thinking of others, took some beautiful pictures of us together. I will treasure those moments. Another angel has entered into eternal rest

  2. Loraine was a very sweet lady. She became a second mom to my sister and I when we were growing up as she took care of us when our Mom was sick. We love you Loraine Gloria Moss
