Crisis nurse slain by half-brother
Family and Friends of Lorraine and Paul EGAN are stunned by the Sarnia murder-suicide.
By Patrick MALONEY, Free Press Reporter
A London native slain by her suicidal half-brother was a dedicated nurse who cared for Sarnia's mentally ill, loved ones recalled yesterday.
Colleagues were stunned -- and family members devastated -- by the killing last Thursday of 29-year-old Lorraine EGAN, a veteran nurse with Bluewater hospital's mental-health unit.
She was shot inside her upscale Sarnia apartment complex by sibling Paul EGAN.
The 44-year-old father of six then shot himself, police said.
"I don't know what happened," Audrey HATCHARD, Lorraine EGAN's maternal grandmother, said in a brief telephone interview yesterday. "I just know it's a tragedy."
To HATCHARD, the details leading to Thursday's shooting at 1285 Sandy Lane -- the posh lakeside highrise Lorraine had called home since February -- were still unclear. The brutal slaying was made all the more painful because of Paul EGAN's involvement.
"It's a terrible thing and none of us expected it," HATCHARD said.
Lorraine and Paul EGAN share the same father, Maurice, who died about five years ago.
Ellen EGAN, Lorraine's grieving mother, declined comment.
Sarnia police were also tight-lipped for similar reasons yesterday. Because they often bring the mentally ill to the emergency ward, many officers knew Lorraine EGAN and worked with her regularly, Const. Bill BAINES said.
So-called crisis intervention nurses also deal with victims of sexual assault and other traumatic incidents. Lorraine EGAN's dedication to the job was praised by BAINES and other colleagues.
"Lorraine was known for bringing fun to the unit," said Donna MORREAU, who worked with her for seven years. "She was very vibrant (and) energetic.
"There's still quite a sense of loss at the unit. Her loss is extremely difficult."
Lorraine EGAN grew up in London and fell in love with Sarnia while studying nursing at Lambton College. She had worked at Bluewater hospital for seven years.
Sarnia police, called to Sandy Lane about 6: 30 p.m. Thursday, found two bodies in a main-floor common area of the 12-storey complex. Investigators focused on a short hallway leading to a rear exit.
A tenant living above the hallway said he heard two shots, a woman's screams, then two more shots.
Though police immediately deemed the incident a murder-suicide, the victims weren't identified until yesterday.
The building has security cameras, but details of any images captured haven't been released.
Little is known about Paul EGAN, who lived in Forest. Contrary to one widespread rumour, he is not a former Sarnia police officer, Mayor Mike BRADLEY said.
He was, however, an active member of his family, said HATCHARD, included in all holiday gatherings.
The loss of Lorraine EGAN has stunned the clan, she added.
"She was the most beautiful girl to look at," HATCHARD said, noting her lone granddaughter was a perennial honours student.
"They (Lorraine and her mother) were very close. They contacted each other two and three times a day."

BAIRD, John Peter
At Toronto, on Tuesday, January 25, 2005, at 4: 00 p.m., John, at age 91, peacefully slipped away to his eternal rest surrounded by his family and secure in his faith, both of which were so very important to him. Loving and cherished husband of Margaret (Peggy) for 64 years. Dear father of Jennifer and her husband Randy REESE, Janet CALLAGHAN and her partner Jeff BUTLER. He is remembered lovingly and proudly by his grandchildren Vanessa and her husband Boaz AXELRAD, Lindsey and her husband Jordan BLACK, Brendan CALLAGHAN, Courtenay WISE, Miranda CALLAGHAN, Darcy CALLAGHAN and his fiancée Taissa PRYCHODKO, and by his great-grandchildren Neeve and Kai AXELRAD and Zoe BLACK. John led a full and remarkable life that began in Newcastle upon Tyne on November 23, 1913. He joined the British Army as a very young man and rose to the rank of Major on a journey that took him to India with the Royal Horse Artillery, Singapore and Europe as well as North Africa, Iraq, Egypt and Italy during World War 2. One of John's joys later in life was the time he spent as a retiree working as a court clerk for the family court of Ontario. John learned a lot about the fine work and difficult decisions that must be wrestled with on a daily basis by the lawyers and judges in their efforts to protect a fair and just society. John never stopped learning and was always deeply interested in public affairs and international politics. Though he spent many years as a soldier, he was deeply saddened by the expansion of violence and wars throughout the world, especially the involvement of foreign troops that escalate these circumstances and expose the soldiers to unnecessary danger. A mass will be held at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, 78 Clifton Road (at St. Clair Avenue East), on Saturday, January 29th, at 1: 30 p.m.
