FRANKFORT — Iris Lorayne Case, of Frankfort, Venice, Fla., and formerly of

home in Boyne City.

She was born the daughter of Garland and Elsie (Kibby) Gilbert on July 23,

Lorayne taught school for five years in Indian River and later the Ovid-Elsie

activities.

After retiring in 1986, Bill and Lorayne moved to Venice, Fla., where they were 
quick to make many friends and were active in the Circle Woods home association 
where they lived. Lorayne was "Activities Leader" and was known for the fun and 
entertaining musical shows that she would direct and take part in that was 
enjoyed by all who attended.

She spent her summers in Frankfort, where she took delight in working at the 
Cherry Hut and having her family visit for their vacations. Lorayne was always 
known for her bright smile, enthusiasm for life, and making others happy.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Bill in 
April 2000; her brother, Kenneth in December 2006; and sister-in-law and 
brother-in-law, Marietta and Sherm Nelson.

grandchildren, Bill Case of Boyne City, Kathryn (Bryan) Bradford of Petoskey,

Johns; great-grandson, Case William Bradford; brother-in-law and sister-in-law,
