To Laura's Family and Friends,
I am truly saddened by Laura's all too soon passing. I worked with her for many years at MIT and came to know her well. and respect her combination of skills and talents She brought both pragmatism and principle to her work and to the Institute and was devoted to finding solutions that could benefit both her sense of people and her ideals. I highly valued her wisdom and judgment, as I believe many at MIT did. Her caring for both people and principles...

Laura was a colleague, a neighbor and a friend during my time at MIT. I looked forward to meetings with her; in addition to her dedication and diligience, she brought her fabulous sense of humor and infectious joie de vivre.
I am so sorry for your loss.

To the Capone and Souza families:
Please accept my deepest condolences for Laura’s passing. Looking back, I have nothing but happy memories of the time I was lucky enough to spend with her, both when I was at MIT and after I had moved on. With her wisdom, imagination, and commitment to her colleagues and to the Institute, not to mention her warm, caring and joyous spirit, it always was a genuine pleasure to work with Laura and to have her as a friend. It is difficult now to find words...

Dear Capone and Souza families,
It is hard to put into words how much Laura will be missed. When I was at MIT, she was truly the "wind beneath my wings" - always lifting me up, moving me forward, and teaching me things that no one else ever could. My life is richer for knowing her, and I am so very sad for your loss and how soon she left this earth.

To Laura's Family,
I am greatly saddened to hear about Laura's passing. Many of us at MIT have lost a cherished colleague and friend and grieve with you. MIT has lost one of its brightest lights.

Dear Laura's family,
Like many who have offered their condolences, Laura touched my life in the years that we crossed paths at MIT. I was stunned to hear the news of her loss. The last time I saw Laura I wasn't even aware that she was ill. She radiated that same smile and cheerful outlook we always knew. Not having lost a close family member, I don't know what words of comfort to offer. The loss to your family is a loss to the MIT family, as well. Please accept my heart felt...
