PORTLAND — Lorraine G. Dionne, 88, formerly of 77 Birch St., died Wednesday, July 25, at the Fallbrook Woods Resident Care with her family by her side.

Miss Dionne was a member of the Prince of Peace Parish at the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul. She was a person of great faith and lived her life serving others. She also enjoyed spending time with her family, knitting, and going on long walks.

She will be remembered for her Lamey Wellehan Shoe Clubs, baking breads for family and friends, her kind, loving heart, and for always taking care of and helping anyone who needed her.
