My, what a wonderful life. Loraine traveled the world with her dear husband, Herschel. Her kindness,warmth, and bold spirit brought her many friends and fun adventures. She gave tirelessly to the clubs she joined and the causes she supported. She faced her challenges with good humor and strong faith. Most importantly, Loraine was the linchpin of her family. She was the keystone who provided support, stability and unconditional love to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She and her beloved twin, Loretta, were always there for each other and for their entire extended family. I got to spend this last month with Loraine, Herschel and Loretta. They told stories of growing up in West Virginia, of living in other countries, of traveling all over the world, of the people they met and the sights they saw. Their memories were wonderful...filled with laughter, first-hand historical knowledge, and keen observations. They were memories of lives lived to the fullest. Truly, Loraine...what a wonderful life.
