Lorraine's Story
Life
Jack and I were married since 1981 and four days beyond his 45th birthday, Jack went to be with the Lord. There is no doubt that our marriage would have lasted for decades to come if he had not died of heart failure so prematurely. Our lives have been sent on an unexpected course.
I live in Benicia California with my son Thomas and my brother Kenny. Young adults tend to gravitate to my home and I am concidered the neighborhood mom. A room in my home has been made into a music room complete with drums, keyboards, guitars and monitors so that the youth have heathy activities to feed their creative impulses.
Interests: Outdoor girl - Love camping, fishing, mountains and lakes. My addiction is the internet game World of Warcraft. I love animals and have four dogs, a cat and a bearded dragon. A pit bull and three chihuahua mixes. All girls!

Workplace
I manage a hardware store in Benicia California. There I supervise a crew and manage the tool department and the seasonal Christmas department as well. I have been with Pedrotti Ace Hardware for fourteen years and counting.
After a couple years of adjusting to being a widow I had opened my heart to another. His name was Scott but we have recently parted ways as we grew apart. I still have a special place in my heart for him and we are remaining friends through the split. My quote for him was "My gift to you is forgiveness, my gift to me is moving on." I guess that explains a lot!
