To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Rest assured the gates of heaven flew open to welcome their newest angel
“Mama Lorraine.”
I met Mrs. Lorraine Nealey in 1977, my junior year at Worthing High School,by way of her lovely daughter Mrs. Tami Green-Smith.
Tami and I relationship blossom over the years and so did the relationship between her mother and I, Mrs. Lorraine, who ultimately was like a second mom to me.
We enjoyed very many intimate family moments together happy as well as sad, but no matter how many times she seen me or spoke with me over the phone, she always told me how much she loved me.
She often referred to me as “My Greta”…. Which made me feel so special….Mama Lorraine was known for her style and grace, but most importantly, the love she had for God, her children, family and friends….
Gone but not forgotten, the legacy she leaves behind is bigger than life itself….. The memories and the love we have for “Mama Lorraine”, will forever live in our hearts.
Vincent, Tami, and Traci may God grant you peace that surpasses all understanding….
Remember weeping may endure for a night, but joy always come in the morning….
Love you forever…
Greta
