Lorraine Prescott, 86, of Haverhill, NH passed away at Grafton County Nursing Home on Sunday September 13, 2026. She was born in Lowell Mass. the daughter of the late Raymond A. Eno Sr. and Emelia (Deschense) Eno.
Lorraine grew up in Chelmsford Mass where she met and married William Prescott on December 2, 1956. She was widowed 3 years later and left to raise their 3 young children. She moved her family to Haverhill in 1966 to provide a safer environment, to raise her children as a single parent.

Lorraine was a resourceful woman that enjoyed a life filled with variety. She was a homemaker, a renowned cookie baker, a veterinarian assistant, a seamstress, a 4-H leader, a home health aide, a volunteer with the original Cottage Hospital Volunteer Ambulance Service. Her last jobs were as a special education assistant at the Orford School, blueberry picker at Windy Ridge Orchard and study hall Supervisor at the Richmond Middle School in Hanover, retiring in 2019.

Influenced by deaths early in her life, she stayed especially close to all of her family and friends. She is survived by her children, William Prescott, Joanne Young and Donna (Timothy) Bixby, Sister in Laws, Marion Eno and Joan Blowey, 6 grandchildren, 7 great grandchildren, nieces and nephews, numerous step grand and great grand children that called her Gram.
Lorraine especially loved to travel. She traveled extensively with her adult children and grandchildren creating a lifetime of memories. Alaska was her favorite, having spent weeks in a camper exploring with grandchildren and a memorable Alaskan cruise with her daughters.
Lorraine had a life full of giving, she generously donated time and money to organizations that fed and clothed those in need. She sewed thousands of warm hats and mittens and donated them.
She completed a life of giving by selecting the Anatomical Gift Program at the Geisel School of Medicine, Dartmouth to receive her body to further education and research, a decision she made 10 years before her death.
