Laura kept busy in her “retirement” years delivering up to 14 paper routes at once and working full time at Walmart in the fashion dept. Laura proudly dedicate her life to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren; always proving and helping when and where she could.

My condolences to the family. Laura was an amazing person who was well loved and respected by everyone at Wal-Mart. Every day I use my acti-fry, my face lights up and I start to smile as I remember the day Laura and I went shopping to buy them as they were on sale. Laura loved to get a good deal. I feel blessed to have known such a wonderful lady.
