I just found out about Lorraine this Sunday morning. She has been the SWEETEST person and next door neighbor I have ever had. I’m heartbroken to lose my next door friend and her sweet dog Sadie that she loved so much. But I KNOW that she is happy to be with her Lord & Savior Jesus Christ right now. We had so many wonderful conversations about Him. I already miss her so much.
