In Memory

Loraine Marie Tappuni

21 Jan 1941 - 24 Apr 2022

Loraine, was a beloved Wife to Kais, Mum to Feras and Jane and Grandma to Oscar, Olivia, Luke, Cameron and Scott. She battled her cancers bravely over many years and through multiple rounds of often gruelling treatment. Her extensive case notes we are sure were the focus of many an interns case studies. Loraine was always beautifully dressed, nails polished, hair styled and wearing earrings - she detested the very thought of 'the track suit' ! She loved baking, particularly for her grandchildren - her sausage rolls, lemon drizzle cakes and iced biscuits were legendary. Beautiful knitted throws at the end of beds and sparkling Christmas stockings on mantle pieces will forever remind us of her love for sewing too. A ferocious reader, Loraine immersed herself in books and then generously shared them without any spoilers. She had a wicked sense of humour that was dry and caustic, with a giggle that was saved for only a few. This tribute is in memory to a generous, loyal and wonderful lady that leaves a gaping hole in our family.
