Laura Robertson Obituary

ROBERTSON, LAURA MAY, Born in Newport NH on July 11th 1939. Left us on May 28th 2011. Mom you are Sadly missed, Never forgotten and always remembered. Your smile and laughter was contagious. Your determination to never give up was inspiring. You gave beyond your means and with your heart. Life has been a long journey for you. You had ups and downs and yet your spirit always brought you back up again. I think we have always known that you thought Happiness resides not in possessions; the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul. It was your interest in your hobbies that kept you sharp and laughing. Your love of cribbage and card games. It was a privilege to be able to watch you; Alan and Paul play competitively and joke with one another over the games. It was really great that you got to travel as much as you did with Paul when you were first married. You both were on the go all the time just like you wanted. You liked to keep busy. Your love of music in your younger years kept you on the go with playing in the bands. You and Paul gave to so many charities and loved animals. You left an impression with everyone you met. You made them laugh and no one will ever forget you and always smile when they think of you because we know in your heart you would not want us to be sad. You would want us to live life, love, be generous to others and smile everyday. You will never be forgotten and always remembered.
Your loving son, Alan LaFrance, your loving daughter in law, Jane LaFrance, your loving husband, Paul Robertson and all your family and friends and all that had the privilege of knowing you and your generosity. We Love you. Please contact us for details we have additional pictures and a website. 407 436 2130 or email us at [email protected]

P, Alan and Jane-We are so sorry for your loss. Even though we only met Laurie a few times, we could tell how happy she was in life. She was always so sweet to our kids. She always spoke so highly of Alan, we could not wait to meet him! She was one proud mom. She will be missed. Please let us know if there is anything we can do. God bless-Audrey and Arnold Parisi
