  • My uncle Lorne. I used to only call him "uncle" to tease him. He was more of a big brother than my uncle because he was only 11 months older than me. We were best buddies and loved hanging out together. We loved the same music and shared an interest in cars and fixing things. He taught me all he learned about electronics and electrical wiring. We loved riding our bikes all over the city in the early wee hours of the morning. We'd go out to Lockport for a Skinners dog. We shared good times and bad. We were confidants who never betrayed each other no matter what. Like the time he shot me playing cops and robbers but we'd lost all the plastic bullets so we usd small stones. "Mom, I don't know who the kid was who threw the stone at me," when asked why my head was bleeding. 😄 or tieing up our pesky sisters and putting them in the closet so they couldn't tag along with us, and because we were basically good kids our moms didn't believe the girls that we'd do something like that. He loved jokes and would regale me with them on our city bus trips to Tec Voc High. One time I was walking down the hall with him towards our lockers and I started to laugh. He asked what was so funny. And I said, "remember that joke you told me 3 days ago?" I didn't and still don't always get the the punch lines. Oh Lorne. I wish you'd stayed around longer. You are gone but never forgotten. RIP "uncle" Lorne. - Posted by: Sandi Miller (Niece) on: Jun 27, 2014

  • We will miss you so much out here where we had so many great times. Like with you, Kay, Todd and Lori's mom came out for new years and we had the 20 foot bonfire in the deep snow, so many other good times and we buried Jody under our tree. Lori planted a poppy under there this weekend. Love you always - Posted by: gord and lori (friend) on: Jun 24, 2014
