Grandma was a very special person, always full of laughter, I love you dearly grandma but am so happy you are dancing in heaven, you will be missed, until we see one another again. Robin
Lorraine Smock was the most beautiful woman I ever saw, at lest she was in the eyes of a 14 year old boy, named Freddy Foster. I was Stanley’s best friend in our teens. Lorraine was the coolest Mom, she would take Stanley and I to all kinds of adventures, such as the Indy 500 race year after year. She would take us to the Johnson County Sale Pavilion( Live Stock Auction) so we could get in trouble and we did. She had a brand new 1958 Oldsmobile 98, which was really nice, but she made me ride home from there one night in the trunk because I had fallen to the Sheep Dip.All the Sheep that were sold that night had to be pushed in to the sheep dip to kill the parasites, and while pushing me and the sheep both got dipped. I hadn’t seen her in years, and had just missed seeing her at Stanley’s Viewing. I look forward to seeing her in Heaven so we can get caught up on everything. My prayers are with the family. Freddy
