Our loving mother passed away of causes incident to age. She lived a long life and spent the 90 years of her life in the Tooele Valley town of Pine Canyon, UT. Lorraine met and married the love of her life, Farrell E. Caldwell, who preceded her in death. She was a mother and raised three sons, Harvey, Lavar and Roger, and a grandmother to numerous grandchildren. Mom served numerous positions with church organizations throughout her life. She never said “no” to a request to serve or an opportunity to lend a helping hand. Her flowers were the talk of the town and she was always willing to share them with anyone who asked. Mom hated weeds. She had a sharp eye that could spot a weed from a great distance. Needless to say, it was a dire mistake for any weed that dared to take up residency in her lovely garden. Lorraine loved traveling, camping and fishing. She traveled to Hawaii, Alaska, Hill Comorah, NY, and other places to numerous to mention.

The news of my Grandmother passing is heart wrecking but knowing that she is in heaven with my Grandfather helps my pain. My Grandmother was a wonderful woman who influenced me by her example of devotion to our family and our Savior. Her presence will be deeply missed. Until we see you again, Melanie, Lauren and Corbin
Levar, Harvey, and Roger–
Thank you for sharing your mother with my family. She became a Pine Canyon grandmother to my children.
