To the family of Lauren, especially her sister, Shelley:
Lauren was always a beautiful girl and was just like a little sister to me. I remember her with a pony tail and hanging around us when we thought we were too old to play with her. She will greatly be missed! May God comfort you for it is in Him you will find strength.

Lauren was like a sister to all of us she was such a wonderful person. Her smile would light up anyone's day. I just wish we could've have kept her longer but God has his will and she is a lot happier now where she is. I am just glad i had the chance to know her. I am so sorry to the family and let me know if there is anything i can do. I love you all very much.

Too quickly known,
Yet too soon to depart...
A tear on my breast,
A shadow on my heart.
The things that may have been,
But will never be
Are the things that I mourn
That I will never see.
I'll never understand, but I still miss you.

Lauren will be missed greatly. I have many happy memories of she and I as we were growing up--from The Learning Tree, RB Elementary, RB Junior High/HS; playing softball and cheerleading together. She was always a beautiful girl and fun to be around. Mary & Cally, I can't begin to comprehend your pain, but my husband, Matt, and I will continue to keep you and your family in our prayers. May the peace of God which passeth all understanding be with you and keep you!!!!
Love in Christ,
Matt & Jennifer W. Smith
