What an exceptional lady Loraine Reaves was! We loved and admired her from the first time we met het. She welcomed everyone with open arms, making them feel at home and yes, her chocolate cookies were just the best. Her legacy will live on in may folks flower gardens as she supplied so many plants and flower seeds from her lovely flower gardens... Our flower beds included. We are saddened by her home going but thankful for the long, well lived life she enjoyed and rejoice that we were blessed to have shared a small part of it. With loving memories, Judy and Sam Baker
