Lorraine became a nurse and worked at Ukiah Adventist Hospital for over 30 years, working contingent into her early 70’s. Lorraine later married Larry Steppe in 1990 till his passing in 2015. Lorraine and Larry enjoyed golf and traveling. They traveled often and played golf as they went, even traveling to Scotland to play on the very first courses. Lorraine was a member of the Ukiah Women’s Golf Club and Baywood Golf Club for many years, often chairing the local women’s golf tournaments. She fell in love with the sport and was very good. Lorraine lived “One day at a time” which is something she would quote often. She was an amazing mother, mother in law, step mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She will be extremely missed. It was a great life full of love and family.
