Not sure what to say?

I am so grateful to have know Laura while she was living at Hearthstone in Beaverton, Oregon. As a dining room server, I always enjoyed visiting with Laura and serving her. She was so kind and sweet to me and others, and I will greatly miss her!

We were fortunate to meet Laura through our friend and Laura's nephew, Tom Armeli. Our memories are of a warm and lovely woman who was an instant friend. She's an inspiration to all who wish to live a long and full life! Our sympathies to her family and friends.

Laura was mom's--Jean Merlitti Mier--cousin and friend. She stayed close to mom until her passing a few years back. I will always remember Laura as a personable and kind lady who never had a bad word to say about anyone.
On behalf of mom our prayers and sympathy.

Cousin Laura was a wonderful example of living life to the fullest, taking care of yourself so you are able to enjoy that life and being true to yourself. This lovely lady will be missed but her life will live on through many fond memories.

I had the pleasure of meeting Laura when I was her home care nurse a couple of years ago. She was one of the sweetest women I had ever met. I extend my heartfelt sympathy to her family at this very sad time. May she now rest in the comfort of God's loving arms.
