Lorraine D. Barno, aged 91, passed away peacefully at her home in Cocoa, FL on Saturday November 30, 2024, surrounded by her loving family.
Born in Dickson City, PA on November 27, 1933, Lorraine resided for many years in the Binghamton, NY area and lived a life marked by dedication, hard work, and a warm spirit that touched all that knew her. She built an accomplished career with IBM, where she devoted 31 years of service and earned the prestigious IBM Quarter Century Award in recognition of her dedication and excellence. Lorraine was also a valued Board of Directors member at Visions Federal Credit Union, where she contributed her wisdom and leadership to support the organizations mission. Following her time at IBM, Lorraine relocated to sunny Florida and brought her enthusiasm and people skills to Carnival Cruise Line at Port Canaveral, where she enjoyed welcoming and onboarding passengers, making their travel experience memorable from the start.
Lorraine took great pride in her Polish heritage, and she had a deep love for travel, exploring new places and creating cherished memories along the way. She adored animals, especially her beloved dog Miss Daisy, who remained faithfully by her side until her passing.
Lorraine is survived by her sisters-in-law Elaine Closser, Marilyn Eck, Rita Ryczak and Barbara Ryczak; her brother-in-law John Haley; her nephews Chris Eck, Colin Haley, and Ryan Haley; and her nieces Christine McNeil, Catherine Ryczak, Sandra Walker, Julie Ryczak, Stacey Hunter, Marie Nitto, Jacqueline Thurm, Jennifer Summers, Pamela Troshan, Allison Charton, Michele Morrison, and Stephanie Johnson and their families.
She is preceded in death by her husband, John Barno; her parents Stanley and Josephine Ryczak; and her brothers Robert Ryczak and James Ryczak.
Her love for family, unwavering work ethic, and her vibrant personality will be remembered and treasured by all who knew her.

I have a lifetime of cherished memories of Lorraine that include numerous family get togethers, her wedding day, times with her and John, our days at IBM, her dedication to the Vision CU (she always had my vote!), and, most of all, I will remember how she made time to stay in touch with phone calls to her Aunt Mami ( my grandmother), and my parents (Paul and Wanda), and myself, on a regular basis until she became to ill to do so.
I extend my love, gratitude, and sympathy, to her family and friends that were there for her, through her final years of life.
Even though I will not be in attendance for her funeral service, I am with you all in spirit and prayer, Linda Ameen
