Lorayne Mae Smythe

Kim and Jon, & families' Please know that my prayers and thoughts are with you during this time. Your mother, Lorayne was a wonderful friend of mine for many years. My fondest memories are of my visits with her and giving her Communion for many years. Receiving Communion was most meaningful to Lorayne. I felt very badly that I couldn't visit her the last several months because of the virus. Also Lorayne and I would attend 2 Lutefisk Dinners in the area every Fall. It was so much fun being with and watching her as she indulged in several helpings of Lutefisk and Lefse. I will dearly miss my conversations with her. She is at Peace now with her Lord.

Kim & Jon, I forgot to mention that I will be sending a Memorial gift in Honor of Lorayne to St. Luke's Lutheran Church,m Middleton. Peace and Love, Darce Olson

Loved playing cards with Lorayne and enjoyed her unique sense of humor and laugh. Lorayne talked fondly of her family. I especially remember her being thrilled by a grandchild who gave her movie passes each year. She loved seeing the most current movies. Lorayne was a wonderful person. I am sure she will be missed by many.

Kim and Jon, So sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Andy and I have many memories of happy times with our mom Elaine and dad Ham spent with your family growing up around the block on Buena Vista St. What a blessing you had your mom for 98 years! We will be sending a memorial gift to Agrace Hospice in her name. May she rest in peace. Marcia and Andy (Kaltenberg)

Dear Family, So sad to hear the news of your mom, Lorayne. I work at St. Luke's and have for 26 years but have been a life long member. So many fond memories of your mom at any and all the events that happened at church. So enjoyed visiting with her in person or on the phone, and she always asked about my family. Loved her smile and her laugh! The photo you picked is priceless! May you find peace knowing she is forever in your hearts. Julie Murray
