Not sure what to say?

To Maddie, Danny, and Julie,
It's taken me some time since your mother passed away to figure out what I would like to say each of you. Laurel and I knew each other from Multiplex days -so it's been at least eleven years,since we've become friends. I know that her whole life revolved around her children and being able to provide the love, guidance, emotional and financial support for all three of you. Sure there were trying times, as there are for all parents, but she was so proud of...

Laurel was an intellegent thoughtful and kind human being. She immulated life. She always had a life going for her. I don't understand. I remember when it was my 20th class reunion and Laurel dressed me up for it. I did not have any money, I was only her personal trainer. She made me feel beautiful. Then sent me off if I was one of her children. When I was with her, I was special, when she was with me she was classic.

To Laurel's family,

I knew Laurel since Multiplex. You could always find her on the stairmaster or running on the treadmill. Laurel always had a smile on her face and a kind word to say. She was a woman of great strength. The most important thing were her children. She always kept me updated on what everyone was doing. As I pass her office at Equinox each day, I am saddened for her family who have been deprived of more precious time with her. My thoughts are with all of you...

To Laurel's family,
I knew Laurel through Multiplex, she was a lovely person, who alway had a kind word and a wonderful smile. You all have my sincere sympathy. God Bless

I was deeply saddened to learn of Laurel's death. She was one of those people that you felt you knew all of your life from the moment you met her.

I met her at Equinox and marveled at her ability to face her illness with such dignity and grace and most of all the will to beat it.

She knew everyone's name and had the ability to make everyone feel like her inner circle. She will be missed greatly by so many.

Laurel was an incredible woman full of strength, compassion and grace. Her greatest joy were her three children Maddy, Danny and Julie, who she spoke of with love, pride and great warmth. They were the center of her being. She was a wonderful role model for her children and many others. She was always able to rise to the occasion and give it her best fight. What a wonderful legacy she has left behind in the too short of time she spent in this world. Laurel will be greatly missed.

To Laurel's Family,
All of us are deeply saddened by her passing and wish the best for all of you. She was a great woman that will never be forgotten. Our thoughts are with you all!
Love, The Meuser Family
