As a little kid Lorraine was my idol. I wanted to be just like her...so pretty, funny, full of energy, lots of friends, so strong and sel- confident. As I grew up and faced some serious issues, it was Lorraine I turned to for advice and, more importantly, comfort and compassion. I miss you in my life, Lorraine, but I know we will all be reunited one day,

While I am truly saddened by the passing of my Aunt Lorraine, I am comforted in the knowledge that she is with Grandma Farley in Heaven  I have never known a more warm and welcoming soul, a better hostess, a brighter smile, or a kinder spirit  We will all miss you deeply but know you will never leave our hearts  Rest in Peace Aunt Lorraine

You will always be in my heart and in my prayers. You lived a full life and still had time for all of us. Opening your warm & comfortable home & feeding us. I remember the silly things we did...like cutting Mom’s hair with your “FloBee” then there was the lobsters & of lots of corn...and making me wear the crazy birthday hat. We had lots of laughs ! You are my Big Sister and now my Angel.

One of the kindest souls I've ever known. Lorraine was the best stepmom anyone could have asked for. Full of love and a bright light at a tough time. My brother Jim and I will always keep her in our hearts. May her memory be a blessing.

Since Grandma Farley passed away when I was fairly young, I knew Aunt Lorraine as the matriarch of the Farley side of the family most of my life - a role she was born to play. Always warm, welcoming and fun, Aunt Lorraine made sure everyone was taken care of. My family and I will miss her very much, but she'll live on forever in our thoughts and hearts and with our love.
