We didn’t get to see Aunt Lorraine very often, only when she came back to Nebraska for a funeral, or when she came to Denver, and we would meet her for dinner. She was a beautiful, classy lady. Mark, you and Bob are the only ones left of your generation of Harrisons.

Mark & Family – I miss Lorraine already; she was a classy lady with a great sense of humor and prospective as well as a “good buddy” of my Dad, Bill Winger. I feel lucky to have known her and glad I visited her recently at Manor South – giving me the opportunity to be reminded of all her wonderful attributes!
