Spence and I send our love to the Carlson family at this very sad time for all who knew Lorraine. She will be missed by many but it will be very hard on the family knowing how dedicated she was to helping, encouraging and loving each of her kids, grandkids and great grandkids.

To all the family :
It is with sad hearts that we share our condolences. May the God of all comfort, comfort your hearts as you say your Good-byes. She can breathe easily now.
I just talked to her the other week and she said she was not doing that well but I had no idea how sick she actually was. We enjoyed having Loraine as our neighbor when we lived in the condo.
Love and prayers especially for the gr grand daughters Vanessa, Arianna and Bailey.

Dear Larry, Dwayne, Bruce, Gail and families
We are very saddened for the loss of your mom and our very special Aunt. We will miss her visits back to Ontario, her phone calls and the updates on our family. Auntie Lorraine cared about everyone and she always wanted to know how everyone was doing. She was truly very special to all of us. We will cherish all the memories we have of her. May she rest in peace now.
Love your cousins, Margaret Wolframe (Terry) and Debbie Laughton
