Lorraine Elsie Osborne

Obituary Date: Friday, October 4, 2013
Lorraine Elsie Osborne was welcomed home by her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on October 4th, 2013 at the age of 88.

Lorraine was born in Wisconsin but left for the big city of Chicago at the age of 18 where she met her handsome military husband, Albert Hayes Osborne. She spent many years moving to multiple cities as a faithful Navy wife. After her husband's retirement as a Chief Petty Officer in 1960, they spent the next forty-five years in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Upon the death of her beloved husband of 61 years in 2006, she moved to Georgia with her family.

Lorraine was preceded in death by her two brothers, James Edward Bradley and Dudley Herrick Bradley, and her son-in-law Peter Francis Geckeler.

Lorraine's memory will always be cherished by her five children and their spouses; Suzanne Osborne Bowman and her husband Paul Bowman of Woodruff, WI; her son, Harold Osborne and his wife Faye Morrell Osborne of Fredericksburg, VA; her son, Richard Osborne of Norfolk, VA; her daughter Cathy Osborne Sitaras and her husband George Sitaras of Suwanee, GA; her daughter Sally Osborne Geckeler-Wright and her husband John Wright of Johns Creeks, GA; her 14 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren.

The family wishes to extend their gratitude to Amedisys Hospice, Leslie Hettenbach and Compassion Home Care, and Suzanne Cislo for their loving care during Mom's last days with us.

A funeral service will be held at McDonald & Son Funeral Home and Crematory, 150 Sawnee Drive, Cumming, GA 30040 on Friday, October 11th at 1pm with visitation immediately preceding at noon.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Young Life Ministries, www.younglife.org.
