MERCER, Lorraine May. Aged 66 years, passed away 1 March 2011 Loved Mother, Mother in law, and Grandmother of Caron, Graham and Mikayla Loader Graeme, Deborah, Kate and Sam Mercer and the late Sarah Mercer God saw you getting tired when a cure was not to be. He closed his arms around you and whispered "Come to Me". In tears we saw you sinking, we watched you fade away Our hearts were almost broken, you fought so hard to stay But when we saw you sleeping, so peacefully free from pain, we could not wish you back to suffer so again So keep your arms around her Lord, and give her special care. Make up for all she suffered and all that seemed unfair Lorraine's funeral service will be held in Graham's Funeral Home Chapel, West Street, Tuakau at 11.00am Saturday 5 March 2011 then leaving for the Heights Park Cemetery.
