To Marty, Tracy, Martin Jr. David and family. I will miss Laurie so much. We always left for work at the same time most everyday. She was always so pleasant as we walked to our cars together in the driveway. A very good neighbor for so many years.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Laura's passing. She was a wonderful person with a GREAT sense of humor. She spent many months back in the early eighties typing and retyping my doctoral dissertation when I was a Northwest Center. Her help was INVALUABLE....I will think of her often and with great affection. My sympathies to her family.

I remember when I first started at 27, you were the first face I saw and I remember you always having jokes from then on. It's bugged out because I JUST saw you last week and now you're not here? It's just a little hard for me to grasp. Prayers definitely go out to her Husband, kids, family and friends. Without question, you will always be the Matriarch of 27 East Mt. Airy. RIP.
