Lorraine was a lifetime member of St. John's Catholic Church and KJZT. She was an active member of The Catholic Daughters and volunteered for many church activities. Lorraine was a wonderful sister, aunt, wife and friend who was cherished and loved by all who knew her.

Her most requested desserts included her infamous chocolate meringue pie, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup pie, and monkey bread. Anyone who truly knew Lorraine knows that she kept a meticulous house and believed firmly in her daily routines. Lorraine and her late husband L.B. Colston enjoyed Czech Beseda dancing. She enjoyed walks around her neighborhood and taking care of her yard and flowers. With a close group of friends she enjoyed "scheduled" water aerobics. After the loss of her first love, she met and married Dan Tenney. He brought a smile to her face and joy in her heart that she so longed for.
