Lorraine Rafferty's Memorial & Comment Picture Page    

December 6, 1961 - September 7, 2017



My wife, business partner, friend and companion was laid to rest with a hand made white silk pillow by Sandi and wearing her white silk wedding dress she made twenty-five years ago. Here, in the Deer Creek Cemetery located in Selma Oregon September 9, 2017.


Lorraine's private closed casket service was held on Saturday the 9th of September, attended by neighbors and friends. Lorraine wanted a simple service with three preachers, Roy Masters, Charles Byrd and Ken Gavlik, with Jack Brown to leading old fashioned hymns. Ken Gavlik lead the private service. Charles Byrd, took the September 9 th service pictures and was to lead the October 14, 2014 public service along with Roy Masters if he could make it.


Lorraine wanted a pine casket with the lid and bottom made to allow air flow. Top Notch, Eli wanted to build it as a favor, out of respect for Lorraine, which he did. Treasure Line, JD engraved the Lords Prayer on the inside lid, as a favor and out of respect for Lorraine.



Treasure Line, JD made and engraved Lorraine's two sided Hardrock Maple grave marker, Top Notch, Eli formed and made the cement foundation, again out of respect for Lorraine.



Lorraine's grave marker reads:

Lorraine May (aka Mae) Rafferty
