Barry, Tracy and Erin,
I just found out about your loss and I am sorry that I missed paying my respect in person. I got to know Laura while Erin and Jackie played field hockey and then we became
Big Y buddies. We would meet at the market and somehow talk forever. At the end of our talks, I always felt uplifted. Laura was a wonderful women and I will always remember her positive outlook in life and her beautiful warm smile.
Sincerely,
Ines Dunn

A few years ago, I worked briefly with Laura at Center School. Her patience and kindness were a gift to the children and adults she spent her days with.
My daughter Annalise has spoken of Laura sweetly during the short time she was a guiding prescence in Mrs. Lemay's second grade class ( Wolf Swamp) this fall.

Barry, Tracy and Erin,
I was so sad to hear the news about Laura. From the moment I met her, years ago, I found her to be so nice and friendly. She fit right in with all of the O'Connor cousins so quickly. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Love Jeannie & Jim

Barry,Tracy and Erin,
I am very saddened by the passing of Laura; a very loving mother and wife. She definitely cherished her family! Knew Laura for many years and she was always positive about herself but more caring and concerned about others. She was always calm and understanding, while working with students. She possessed so many admirable qualities!
I am glad I was able to spend some time visiting with her last week.
She was a treasure, the real deal, and I will truly miss...

it is with great sorrow that I write this note. Laura was a Godsend to me at my time of need. At the end of the 2010 school year just when I was about to retire, I was hospitalized. Laura was called in to either sub for me or my aide, I don't remember in which capacity. I do remember that she was wonderful. Although by then I had finished report cards and cleaned the classroom, she saw to it that everything was in perfect order by the end of school. I deeply appreciated everything she...
