Lorraine loved butterflies, and she loved to laugh, dance and sing. She loved and adored her family. We love you mom, nana, auntie and sister.

I dreamed I was a butterfly, Soaring high and flying free. The worries of the world below No longer had a hold on me.

My wings were filled with gentle light, My heart was calm and still. I knew that I was safe at last, Within God’s perfect will.
