Heart broken to hear of Lorrain’s passing
Dave and Sheila Millar
Mark. Our sincerest condolences to you and the boys. We were saddened when we read the news of Lorain’s passing. We all realize the monumental role our military spouses have in our careers, family and lives as a whole. From the deployments to the perennial night shifts, they are there to comfort us, understand us and love us. Lorain served as inspiration and role model for all military spouses, including Sheila. She lives on in all of us as she gave a bit of herself to all those she touched. Our thoughts, love and support to you.
We want to wish you all the best as you navigate through this terrible time. May you and your family find solace in all the many friendship you both build over the years. Debbie and I have many fond memories and we shall cherish those memories forever. We are thinking of you and your family. Rest in peace Lorain
