    Uncle Ralph, Wayne, Ed & Clare, I am so very sorry.
    Auntie Lorna was one in a million. She will always hold a special place in my heart ❤️ To me she will always be my “adopted mom”. She not only cared for me when I was a baby she was by my side and supported me in so many ways throughout my life.
    It is so hard to accept that she passed away on my birthday but I believe that she wanted to share my special day. I will never forget her. I will cherish all of her memories close to my heart forever. I have comfort knowing that she is with my mom and dad.
    Love you forever, Auntie Lorna.

    I am so happy that my children Zach, Amanda & Jessica, along with Zach’s girlfriend Meghan and our dog Riley got to have a special visit with Auntie Lorna & Uncle Ralph. Unfortunately Mark was unable to come.
    They will all miss Auntie Lorna and her big hugs.

    Carilyn and I send our sincerest condolences On Lorna’s passing! As cousins born within a few month’s of each other, we spent many hours playing together and as such we became more than just cousins and more like close friends. In later years she brought Ralph into the fold and a great friendship was added as well. Lorna and Ralph were a special couple and although Lorna has passed she will always be remembered and loved by Carilyn and I. RIP Lorna, someday we will see you on the others side of the stars!
