    I'm saddened to learn of Lorna's passing. She always had a wonderful smile, even though I knew she wasn't always feeling well. In recent years, she always made a point of talking with me, at my Kaiser volunteer position. She is a special Angel.

    No one will ever be able to give me compliments like you, Auntie Lorna. Your thoughtfulness and generosity live through your wonderful daughters. Thank you for the privilege of having you as my aunt. You will be in my heart always.

    Dear Santos Family, I will forever remember Lorna's smile and willingness to be of service many years ago when she worked at Old Stone Bank. May she rest peacefully, and may you be comforted by the memories you have and the legacy she leaves you.
