Born in Glace Bay, N.S. in 1931, Lorraine was a Maritimer through and through. Many friends, acquaintances, and even strangers, have experienced her hospitality, kindness and generous spirit over the years. She was known for the cozy slippers she enjoyed knitting for her family, friends and numerous times for the Canadian Olympic Women’s Hockey team. She had a fondness for Long Lake where she spent the twilight of her life, entertaining her loved ones, appreciating her surroundings, and rescuing stray cats and mangy foxes. Lorraine was an incredible woman whose infectious smile, steadfast courage and adventurous spirit will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
