Aunt Laura was one of my favorite Aunts, although I know she is in a better place, I and my family will miss her very much... She always had a way of making all of us burst out into laughter, With Aunt Laura we never knew what she might say next, she was as feisty as she was sweet, her spunk gave us many laughs and moments we will never forget...I have a very recent picture of her holding all four of her newest great grandnieces & nephews at one time! LOL that was Aunt Laura hilariously funny and sweet all rolled into one... It is comforting to know she is with the Lord and we will all see her again one day

Edd, Donna, Sandra, Nancy and family . . .where does one begin to try to express the deep and profound grief we feel and our helplessness at conveying to you all our love and care for you. Aunt Laura was very special to so many and her love was always evident. I will miss her from a distance, while Jim and I pray for God's comfort and peace to you all. Love you.
