I was deeply saddened to hear of Laurie's passing. We spent many days together as kids, she was the closest thing I had to a big sister as a child and I loved her. Prayers of peace and strength to her husband, children and loved ones in this time of sadness, and may the grief of your loss soon give way to only fond memories of a very special soul.
