I was trying to find Laurie on Facebook. While I had your phone number and meant to call so many times I found this news. I am so sorry for your loss Louis and and am shocked and profoundly saddened by this news.
Laurie was without doubt one of the nicest most genuine people I have ever known. I so regret not having been in touch. Please know that both Ken and I are beyond words over your loss. Please accept our thoughts and our prayers and our great regret at not having known of Laurie's illness.

Laurie was one of the most special people in the world. I am so lucky to have known her and to have been a part of her life. Her sweetness and encouragement and joy and love for all who knew her will stay with me forever and I am grateful that our paths shared the same road for the years we were together. I am so very saddened by her death and am blessed by her life.

Dear Louis, I was so shocked and saddened to hear abourt Laurie. Cheryl Crawley told me that she saw Laurie at the shop and that was such a nice surprise. I always enjoyed working with her--we laughed a lot and I will always remember how much fun she was and how much she loved you. My heart is heavy with this news (Lester Johnson just told me).
Again, my thoughts are with you.

Our times together weren't plenty outside of work and life had taken both of us far away from where we met.  However, thanks to the wonderful dynamic that our respective husbands added, those "get-togethers" continue to be memorable and forever amusing.  I think we all still laugh out loud by just thinking of our trip to AZ last year.

Laurie, my very dear and special friend, has accomplished with tremendous strength and grace what so many fail to do. Her destiny was to make those that knew her better and stronger for having had her touch their lives. 

No matter where Laurie's incredible journey had taken her.......she proved every day that she was filled with peace, strength and hope.  In truth, she was the one who inspired those around her.   My prayer is that she always knows how blessed I feel to have had her friendship.

With much love, respect and affection.

What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why she left this earth so soon, or why she left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived. And that her life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. God saw her in her suffering and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around her and whispered "come to me”. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best. I am deeply saddened and my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Laurie's grace, style and generosity will always be a part of Blueprints & Bluejeans. I was inspired by her courage and it kept me going many times. Louis you are in my thoughts and prayers. Missie
