Lorne will be missed by his roommates Kathleen Moulden, Ernie Martens, Matthew Barker, and Isaac Klassen; all the staff who knew him and worked with him from his VOI family; his siblings, Beverley Murray (Don), Audrey Richmond (George), Debbie Worrin (John), Lori Magee (Mike), Glen Richmond (Catherine), Pamila Richmond (Maurice), and many nieces and nephews.
Lorne was predeceased by his parents William and Helen Richmond, his sister Elaine Richmond, and his roommate Betty Dey and good friend Sherry Kraska.
Lorne was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba and moved to the MDC at age 5 and resided there until April 1988, when he moved to 21 5th Avenue Carman, supported by Rainbow Residence, now Visions of Independence.
Lorne was a gentle soul and had a contagious laugh. As a child he enjoyed playing trains, singing songs with his family and family visits with picnic lunches at a park. Lorne loved Coca Cola and later coffee, going for walks, listening to music and he loved cars. Lorne enjoyed van rides and liked to get a coffee and drive to Jordan corner or Elm Creek to watch cars going by on the highway. Lorne enjoyed many trips over the years; Clear Lake, Camp Sandy Haven, Alberta and his last holiday to Gimli. Lorne was well known in the community of Carman where he resided for over 30 years.
We will hold a celebration of Lorne’s life on Monday August 22, 2022 at Doyle's Funeral Chapel Carman.
