Lorraine Jones

I am so, so sorry to hear this sad news. I only knew Lorraine for a year or two when we both worked for a publishing company but she had a lasting impression on me. I was very green (fresh out of university) but Lorraine was so, so kind, patient and supportive and, above all, great fun to work with. I will treasure my memories of her, especially her energy and her smile - she was definitely one of life’s gems. Sending my sincerest condolences and love to David and the family. Brigitte

My memories of beautiful Lorraine began in the mid 1970s where I was so lucky to have been friends with her in the WRNS in Naples. We had so much fun together! We continued our friendship after the WRNS as she lived with her parents not far from mine and I was so happy when she and David got married and had Carris. We did lose contact when I moved to the States but the joys of Facebook brought us back in touch. I will miss her lovely smile, her sense of fun, her determination, her creativity and her joyful loving heart. Rest in peace Lorraine xoxo

Lorraine, there are so many wonderful things to remember - sat at the kitchen table exploring cookery books for new recipes and dishes to try; cheese, cornichons, bubbles and ‘light puddings’; puppies, poultry and piglets; Tess, Evie, Ginny and Sam; chopping and stacking logs; lighting a fire and then a glass of red; a walk round the field with Tess, chasing her to rescue another t-towel; trips on ferries and planes; working with tractors and trailers; Spring and Autumn colours; Motown and soul; chatting about our inspirational kids, and more recently our grandkids; so many shared memories. I’ll KBO but I’m gonna miss you Raine. With love and gratitude for a great friendship, Jo xx

Dear David, we are so sorry ( and shocked) to hear this sad sad news. Our thoughts and prayers are constantly with you. Sending you our love, Chris and Ann xx

A very sad loss. Sincere condolences to all members of her family. RIP

Such a shock and such a loss. Forever the trooper Lorraine, always finding the strength to push on and never one to make a fuss. Incredible human being who will leave such a huge empty space on earth. Fly high Lorraine, and protect your loved ones from the other side. Our thoughts are with David and your family as they try to come to terms with you being taken too soon.
