On Wednesday, April 2, 2008 Lorain Buchanan Boger, 73, was promoted to Glory in Good Shepard Hospital following a brief illness. 

As Lorain entered into her eternal home, waiting to welcome her were her parents, Robert and Emma Buchanan, a brother J. W. Burrow, a loving brother-in-law, Robert Stanley Bryant  and a very special nephew, Robert Douglas Petty.
