"Dear family of Lorine, we are sorry to hear about your mother. She always had a smile. I sent a article I had found in my aunts scrapbook about your dad and her beautiful wedding. I sent that to her. She called and thanked me for it. We had a nice visit and shared how I think of her her each time I make her wonderful roll out sugar cookies. She will be missed. Sorry we are out of town and send you a hug by computer. Loved her much . Ray and Beth Battles"
