Lorraine Epplen, 40 years as crossing guard
To Lorraine Epplen, the idea of retiring from her position as a school crossing guard while she was still able-bodied seemed ridiculous. However, her son, Gary Epplen, didn't know that when he suggested that his 70-something mother hang up her white gloves.
"She said, 'I have a purpose in life,"' he recalled. "She said, 'These kids need me, and I'm going to get these kids across safe.' "
And Ms. Epplen did that, almost up until her death Sunday at Highlands of Fort Thomas Nursing Home.
