She was also a former communicant of Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish. Lorraine grew up spending her summers on Shadow Lake and making annual trips to Canada to visit her grandparents and relatives. She was most proud of her ability to speak and write in French. She began her early working life at the Arlington Mills in Methuen. She was a dedicated wife and mother first and foremost. After her children were grown, she became a salesperson for Almy’s Department Store. Lorraine enjoyed traveling, dress making, performing clown duty for the Methuen Senior Citizens, camping during the summer months, and crocheting. Lorraine was the beloved wife of the late Orville (Jim) Floyd. She loved to share the story of how a chance meeting in Boston, a girl from Methuen and a boy from Oklahoma, met on his way to Europe to engage in WWII. This chance meeting and subsequent marriage after the war, led to a long and happy 66 years of marriage. Most of all she loved her family. She was the beloved mother of Warren Floyd and his wife Ann, Linda Bacon and her husband George, and Robert Floyd and his wife Dee. Lorraine was the dear sister of Gloria Lake. She was also the loving grandmother of Lisa, April, Jason, Keith, Alicia, Sarah, Peter, and Rachel.
