I just found that Laura had passed. Laura was the sweetest person I have meet . We experienced breast cancer at the same time and would often talk about this. I worked at mayo with Laura for years. I am so sorry that I just found this out. My heart is so sad finding this out. She will stay in my memories forever as the greatest

Although i did not know Laura very well (we both worked at Mayo Clinic) whenever I saw Laura she always greeted me with a smile.

Not only was Laura a great wife, mother, grandmother and sister, she was a fantastic friend to me and we shared so many precious moments laughing and being silly for no particular reason.
She was the best friend anyone could ask for and I am very fortunate to have known Laura and loved her. I will never forget her and words cannot express how wonderful a person she was in my life.
Rest in peace my dear friend.

We have so many wonderful memories of Laura, when we all young moms on Becker Lane. She was always so calm, and I never understood how she was so unflappable with 4 kids and I was a hot mess with 2. Such a beautiful legacy she leaves, love to you all. See you on the 18th.
