Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • Words cannot express my sadness and sorrow for the loss of Lorne Ranson. I have known the family for years and Lorne was like a father to me. He is a kind, gentle soul who loved people and animals. Very outgoing and supportive. He was a great husband, father, grandfather, and friend to all that knew Lorne. He will be dearly missed.
