Laura WALLINGFORD

I met Laura as a shy ninth grader at Sacajewa Jr high. She was the first girl that I felt at ease talking to. We started dating as sophomores, and dated off and on through our junior years. She was a wonderful, confident, uplifting young girl. I saw her last at our 35th reunion after our son died, and she just took my wife under her wing. My wife and I looked for her at every reunion since. Never knew she was sick. I was so bummed out I couldn't sleep last night when I found out of her...

I was so very sorry to read of Laura´s passing on our LC65 website. Laura and I were Lewis and Clark classmates as well as childhood neighbors. Our families lived right next door to each other, with a shared driveway as well as many fond memories. Laura had a wonderful and distinctive voice and laugh, she was always one to have fun and I remember her being quite amused when I told her I thought she looked so much like Doris Day with dark hair! We both came from big families, Laura being...

Laura and I went to LC together. She was definitely an outstanding girl with a zest for life. She gave me one of her dogs puppies our sophomore year and we enjoyed Willie a female cocker blend for years. I have fond memories of times spent with Laura and her sisters. Jeanne Schubert Bock.

My sister Laura was the oldest of the bunch of the McWilliams clan children. I was the 6th child, Mikie. Laura was out of the house and forging her own path with Michael Wallingford before I was even old enough to understand it all. She was more like a second mom to me with her knowledge of life and experience´s. She and Michael brought three beautiful children into the world. I loved Laura´s laughter and her zest for life. Her spirit now is radiating so brightly in Heaven as her personality...

To ALL the McWilliams clan I want to tell you how sorry I was to read of Laura´s passing. I LOVED that girl and unfortunately hadn´t seen her for years as well as her sisters Tami and Gail. Fond memories come to mind thinking of all the fun we had living next door to each other at Twin Lakes!!!! Blessings and hugs go to all of you on this sad, difficult time. (Lisa Brubaker Northcott)
