Will always remember my second grade teacher from Southwest Elementary School in Windsor Locks, from September 1967 to June 1968. I was a seven year old boy then, growing up in a small town ( Windsor Locks ) CT in the late 1960s. She was very kind to me, & even now at nearly 65 years of age myself, in 2025, I can still remember what a nice person & great teacher she was ! God Bless You Laura Yopp. Sincerely, Thomas James Roche 3rd, one of your second grade students from Southwest Elementary School in Windsor Locks CT from September 1967 to June 1968.

Your mom ( Laura Yopp ) taught second grade, at Southwest Elementary School in Windsor Locks CT during Sep 1967 to Jun 1968. I was in her class as a 7 yr old 2nd grader. Your mom was one of the kindest teachers Ive ever had. So sorry to hear of her passing. She was probably age31/32 when she was my second grade teacher, in 1967/1968. God Bless your mom, for the great teacher & kind person that she was !

Laura has been a friend to me for many years. I first met her at Bailys gym in Manchester, CT. We used to do the stepper together, Laura is a kind and gentle person. Laura invited me to her condo a couple of times when she lived in South Windsor, CT. I met her beautiful friendly cat. We met for lunch at a pizza restaurant near her condo. We also went for lunch at a restaurant near Insparations beauty parlor where I get my haircut. I remember she did not like croutons on her salad. She brought her own salad dressing to the restaurant for her salad. Laura made her own salad dressing. I remember driving her to Bloomfield. She wanted to show me where she lived. I invited her over to my home also. I am honored to have known her. She was also very good to her mother. Yes, she was a very healthy lady. We did not keep in touch after she went to live with her daughter. I am sad that she is gone but not forgotten. She is a very pretty and attractive lady. I'm sorry we did not keep in touch after she moved. Laura never got old and kept her good looks.
