So sorry to hear of your sad loss RIP Lorraine from the Pottinger family .
Reba, Invercargill
For many years Lorraine visited Ascot Snipps to keep that snazzy "do" she wore so well. She loved talking about her Norfolk Island trips and together we knew a few Dutch families so always a smile as we said goodbye. Heartfelt sympathy to her family

We are deeply sorry for your loss. Losing a mum, nana, and great-nana leaves an irreplaceable void. Please know our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. May you find comfort in the cherished memories you shared and the love she brought into your lives.

Rest in peace dear Lorraine. I have happy memories of our times together, and the fun we had with Case and Tom,
especially during your Norfolk Island years. I remember how you cared for me and my broken leg when the
X-ray lady was off the island! Thanks for your kindness, and your warm hospitality. I will miss our phone calls and
Little “catch-ups” of Norfolk news.
