AUBURN — Lorraine L. Ricker (Leblanc), 74, of Auburn passed away Sunday, May 6, at Clover Healthcare.

She was born in Lewiston on June 20, 1943, the daughter of Henry Sr. and Lucienne (Beauchesne) Leblanc. At the age of 16 Lorraine was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis but that never slowed her down from living a full life.

In her earlier years Lorraine was a member of Le Montagnard Snowshoe Club, enjoyed weekly card games with friends and spending time lying out in the sun at the ocean or poolside. She had a huge heart and was loved by all who encountered her.

Survivors include her son, Lionel Guay III; daughter, Nancy Pelletier, and her fiance, Alan Grass; granddaughters Sheena Aston, Natasha Aston-Hill and her husband, Adam, Ashley Guay and Caitlin Guay; great-grandchildren Jullian, Autumn, Kylie and Gabriel; sisters Jeannette Michaud and husband, Norm, Pauline Langill and husband, Dave, Paulette Pelletier and husband, Don; brothers Henry Jr. and wife, Pauline, Conrad Leblanc.
