The couple moved to Stevens Point in 1950.

After raising their six children, she and Eugene fostered 33 babies, even a set of twins. She was an excellent baker and made her own pie crusts up to the age of 99. She loved to share her baked goods with anyone she could.

Lorraine was a devout Catholic and volunteered at the Lincoln Center in the dining room for many years.
She is survived by her Son Jerry (Nancy) Kramar, Boulder Junction, Daughters; Jeanne (Red) Marshall, Stevens Point, Karen (Jim) Conklyn, Stevens Point.

The family would like to thank her care workers from Inclusa, Heartland Hospice and Atrium for their loving care.

Our amazing Mother, Her life is an excellent example of real love, true courage, and one-of-a-kind beauty and strength.
