I grew up with Laurie and was a close friend from grade school through High school. I had many found memories and experiences with her and her family. Laurie was an adventurous soul with kindness as wisdom in her heart especially for friends and family. I’m saddened to hear this news of a loss of a friend. Sending healing thoughts and spiritual prayers for the Scarcella/Andrijeski families.
