      The last of the matriarchs of this great family has slipped away from us. We have learned a lot from Lorraine, and her sisters, Luella and Evelyn. They have blessed us with their beauty, their grace, their wisdom and their sense of humor. We thank you for this journey. We are filled with fond memories, admiration and underlying love. We will miss you dearly.

      Love,

      Your Family
