Laura and I became friends while volunteering together at Christian Neighbors. She gave so much of herself to CN and to so many who had the gift of knowing her. I loved her sense of humor, her kind and caring way and her fun personality. She was so proud of her daughters, her granddaughter and her dogs. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to her daughters and family. I miss her very much.

Your mother and sister will be truly missed my many. We had great times with her and knew her well and the difficult struggle she had in part of her life. She was a good friend. Ours prayers are with you all at this difficult time, but continue to talk about her to her granddaughter and let her really feel who your mom was, a beloved person.

Lauras was so much fun! Always fun, helful and kind. I will always remember her with a smile.
I was so lucky to have met her during our kids' preschool years and kept in touch with her even after we moved from Parchment. Hugs to her girls Kelly and Kristen.

Rest in peace my friend and pen-pal from the early 70's. Letters and smiles over the miles carried us through space and time and made it all worth while. My deepest condolences to your family.

My heart hurts at the news of Laura's passing. My condolences to to her daughters and family on the loss of such an amazing and generous woman. She was always the first to help anyone. Her passing is a huge loss in the lives of so many.

Laura was a kind, generous, compassionate, and funny person and it truly was an honor to know her. Thank you, Laura, for being you. Laura will be missed by so many.

I can hear Laura’s beautiful voice and laugh as I type this. What a genuine and kind friend. She will be greatly missed. Laura was always giving to others! She offered to host my baby shower at her home in Alamo when I was a kindergarten teacher and having my first baby. I also visited her frequently at Party Perfect and we would share craft and decorating ideas. I remember her last day at Alamo and how much she and Julie were excited but also a bit nervous around their retirement and all the...

I am so sorry to hear about Laura. We were childhood friends, living in the same neighborhood and attending school together, K-12. I have wonderful memories of our friendship and all the great times with our East Side friends. May God surround you with His peace and comfort. She will be missed by many.
