I am still trying to put into words how I feel. Lorraine was a very good friend. We met at Durham Regional Hospital. We were both going to Duke for our treatments. I already miss our conversations. My prayers now are for her children family.

When words seem few,love speaks from the heart. No words can adequately express just how we feel. Please know you all are in my prayers. Georgetta Parker

It was a honor to have worked with her and be able to watch her brighten other peoples lives. Her clients adored her, as we all did!!

To the family, I know how the loss of a mother can be and we are praying for each of you. May the Peace of God carry you through these hard times. Pam Parrott

"Rainy", I was saddened to hear of your crossing over. God knew that you were tired and called you home to your heavenly rest. Your smile, laughter and love for your family & friends will never be forgotten. Tell all of our family that have gone before you that I love & miss each of you. We may be sadden by your passing but God knew that you were tired & called you home. You will forever be in my heart. I love you "Rainy"!! "Cookie"/Alma

May God give your family the strength that you will need in the upcoming days. When I last talked to Lorraine she was so happy and shortly there afterwards I learned of her illness. God had better plans so continue to hold God's hand and trust him who never fails. Love, Jacqueline Vaughan and family

Rainey, I was so sorry to hear of your passing but God knew. You're now at rest, free of pain and walking the streets of heaven with your new body. Though you aren't here in the physical, your memory will live on in your family. My prayers to the entire family during this difficult time. God, give them the strength they need. I pray this prayer.

I miss you so much always auntie... "I LOVE YOU ALWAYS... DON'T FORGET IT"

Lo 💜

Lorraine. God saw you getting tired. When a cure was not to be. So he wrapped His arms around you. And whispered "Come unto me" You didn't deserve what you have went through and so He gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. So when he saw you sleeping so peaceful and free from pain He could not wish you to come back to suffer that all over again.....RIP Cousin Love Always Phyllis R

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
