i have lost my beautiful sister Lorraine. I was with her when she ans her baby son Joey waited for her Navy husband to come home form the Invasion Of Normandy Beach. I was with her when she became a widow at 52 years old,loosing her wonderful husband. I was there when her dear son Tim graduated from high school and went to Vietnam. Later she lost her dear son Joey. We prayed many times. She endured many hardships and tried to be strong. I miss her every day and wish i could have lived closer to her. Our long phone calls helped my loneliness. No one can ever take your place Dear Sister Lorraine. Much love Lucille Greenlee
