So sad to hear of the passing of Laura. We shared alot of good times together through our friendship that started from our first meeting in the Adventure Club. I always thought Laura had so much class, had perfect hair (lol) and was a beautiful lady. My condolences to her family and children, I know she loved them very much. I'm grateful for the short time I got to spend with her as friends and will cherish those memories. Rest in peace Laura.
