I never knew Maury Laws personally, though his musical work is certainly well-known to me.
My sincere condolences of Maury's passing.
The legacy he leaves behind with his musical work in several TV and Film works (especially for Rankin/Bass' "Festival of Family Classics", which is a childhood favourite of mine) will never be forgotten.
Mr. Laws has made the childhoods of millions with his musical work.
My thoughts and prayers go to his surviving family and...

It was a delight and privilege to be around Maury and to get to know him and his beloved family. Sending heartfelt condolences to Karen and to all of the family now grieving. Maury as I knew him was a very fine musician, gently humorous, and humble. His contributions as an composer and supporter of the arts will be greatly missed in our community and beyond. Thank you Maury!

I'm so sorry to hear about the death of the Laws Family patriarch.
Karen, I find my mind flooded with memories of of so many visits with you and Maury, especially for those amazing days you opened your NYC home to Andi and me way back in, I think, 1977!
And the times I'd stop in to see you on College Ave, etc.
I'm holding you (and your family) close in my heart.
Maury will be missed forever.
