I remember Laurie as a bubbly, compassionate friend who loved her daughter more than anything in the world. I can hear her laugh and see her beautiful face smiling as she told me about the tiki bar she planned to create; I thought about her every morning when I passed her house on the way to Lemonweir School. I had not known Laurie was sick; sadly, we had lost touch. Take care, Olivia - I wish you peace and send you a big, big hug.
