Lauren Kathleen Wright, the stars are brighter at night and heaven has changed with your BIG Smile. You touched so many people here on earth in a wonderful way. I know that you couldn't see it at the time. The big brown eyes had a way of dancing when you smiled which was most of the time. Keep that smile going and I know that big star right over there is YOU!

Lauren, you were a wonderful beautiful child, sometimes like a daughter, sometimes like a sister. You brought so much joy to Alley and I and you are so dearly missed. I am so sad for your family and wish i could take away their pain. I will always think of you as the " sleeping beauty"..I love you till eternity and beyond. Your life and death will make sense to us all one day..until then Jesus will hold us and keep us strong. I love you and miss you dearly. --> Susan K Lyons

I didn't know Lauren personally. But, I've not once heard a single bad thing about her. I would have loved to gotten the chance to meet her. Knowing that can't happen now, breaks my heart. There isn't a doubt in my mind that she wouldn't have changed my life. She's changed so many other people's lives. Even though I never got the chance to meet her, I want to say that I love her, and I mean that. Everything that I've ever heard about her makes me feel like she was one in a million. There should be more people like Lauren in this world. She's greatly missed. But, July 4, 2011 wasn't goodbye for Lauren. It was simply a see ya later.
Rest in peace, Lauren Wright.

So sorry for your loss family and friends. From what I've read of Lauren on FB sites she was a friend to many. Maybe Sheridan can start an award in Lauren's name for the student that brings the school together. Like the school Angel Award.
