Not sure what to say?

Grim Reaper by-passed me and instead reached and snatched Laurel, who was at her zenith. Laurel learned from the master of the art of giving, philanthropist par excellence, her father, Archie Dickranian. I suspect that Laurel's noble qualities live in her offspring. Continue resting in peace, Laurel.

We were saddened to learn of your loss. We know Laural enriched the lives of many and certainly left a great legacy. We extend our sympathies to your family. Rod and Shari Paloutzian

Laurel and I were classmates all through high school; and this sad news has shocked me to the core. She was a refined, generous and talented young lady who we all admired in high school. I am just so sad I never had a chance to say goodbye.

On behalf of the Armenian Assembly, we extend our deepest condolences. Laurel was a much loved and respected member of our community. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My heartfelt condolences. Laurel was a wonderful light in the community and her caring heart touched us all. She will be missed.

I am deeply saddened to hear about the death of Laurel. My deepest condolences to Wally, Madeline and the entire Karabian family. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Sending my condolences and heartfelt sympathy for all of you. Laurel was one of my first and dearest friends at Pomona. Some of my fondest memories of those years are of overnights in Beverly Hills and Malibu--the warmth of a home away from home. We are all so blessed to have known such a graceful, loyal and generous soul.

Peace be with you.

Dear Madeline and Walter, our heartfelt condolences to you as well as Cindy and Ken, may you have peace and the strength to endure the loss of your beloved and beautiful Laurel.
To know Laurel was to love her, she exuded dignity and grace. Her love and passion for the most beautiful forms of art was unsurpassed.
We had long talks with friends, discussing, family, education, travels, matters of the Armenian community and the arts in which she was so involved.
She loved and respected...
