Not sure what to say?

I'm several years late, and so sad to learn that Laura has passed. We attended Opera NUOVA together in 2008, and maintained contact, including meeting up in Paris when I was living there. I'm also from Winnipeg :) Sending deep condolences to everyone else whose lives Laura touched with her joyful presence.

Suosje´cam sa svima koji tuguju za ovom dragom zenom. Prerano se ugasio sjaj njezinih divnih ociju i umuknuo njezin presjajan vokal.

My Sympathy to the McAlpine family I came across a video of Laura Sing was Despised from Hanel's Messiah . she sang with such Passion. Rest in Peace Laura

What a horrific and untimely loss of a beautiful woman with a stunningly gorgeous voice, matched only by her warm personality and wonderful sense of humour! Village Voices of Markham was blessed to welcome Laura as our Mezzo soloist, when she awed audience and singers alike at my final (Messiah) concert as their conductor in 2015. I have missed seeing her smiling face in Iseler Singers concerts since she moved to Australia and very sad to never again have the opportunity to see, hear or...

Was shocked and saddened to hear the news of Laura's death. Her beautiful voice and her sweet personality will always remain in our hearts. She was so highly thought of in Calvin Presbyterian and Deerpark United Churches and the various Music Groups she faithfully supported.

My heart goes out to her family and friends. She will be missed, but there will be great rejoicing in Heaven.

I had never had the chance to meet Laura but I sure wish I had. She sounds like an amazing person and an even more amazing artist. My heart goes out to her family and all those who were fortunate enough work and spend time with her. What an amazing lady she was. And how lucky we were to have her in Winnipeg. There are many great artists in Winnipeg who have passed on. Many who we have met and read about and those whom none of us had the chance to see and share their talent with us. Maybe when...

Laura has been a shining light in my life since we first met at the University of Manitoba. We sang together in Winnipeg and then in Toronto over the many years. Her positive energy was something to behold. She was a jewel. We'll miss you Laura.

Laura was a radiant person, inside and out. Her voice and laugh were infectious and she always uplifted my spirits. She always lifted others, and I was so happy for her when she met and fell in love with Alan, who was the only man strong enough to lift a person like Laura. She possessed such strength and sense of purpose. Laura was a wonderful friend to me during my time in Toronto, I met her socially in 2015 when I returned to the city, and we remained firm friends ever since. My deepest...

Laura and I spent a couple of years working together in downtown Toronto in fundraising. She was loved by all those who worked with her- and was so often the diplomatic glue that brought us all together when things got hard. She was a great spirit, a bright light, a kind and generous soul. My sincerest condolences to her family- they raised a beautiful, talented, gracious and caring daughter. Laura, you will be deeply missed.
