I also worked with Lainey at MMCI on 6C, 16 years ago. I see from the pictures she didn't change much, but I do remember long hair....the smile is unforgettable. I am sorry for your loss.

Warren, it was a privilege to get to know you and Lainey throughout her illness. She was a sweet lady, and very lucky to have you by her side. Your care for her was obvious and noted by many. I hope that you and Sandi are comforted to know that she must surely be dancing in heaven and smiling down on you now, full of life again. God Bless both of you. Kami Doubet

I worked with Lainey at Methodist as well. She was a great nurse and and a wonderful human being. I really respected her as a nurse and saw the good she did for so many, patients and co-workers. I am so sad to hear she has left us. I am sure she will be making her rounds up in Heavan now, just like she did all the years at MMCI. Rest peacefully Lainey.

Warren and Sandi, my thoughts and prayers are with at this time.  Warren, I just want you to know what a blessing you were to Lainey in these last few weeks.  In all the years I have been a nurse, I have never seen someone as loving and caring as you were with Lainey.  I just want you to know that you did a great job and Lainey was lucky to have you by her side.  She surely is smiling down on you right now.  It was an honor to care for Lainey and to have worked with her over the years.  She will surely be missed.
Thinking of you both.

My mother, Donna Johnson, was a patient at Methodist 4 Hamilton for almost 2 months from Dec. 2008 thru Jan.2009 and Lainey was one of her nurses. She was a wonderful caring nurse and took good care of my mom and all of us too. I was saddened to learn of Lainey's death. Although my mom has since passed away, I will always remember Lainey as a caring, compassionate, wonderful nurse. My sincere and deepest sympathy to Lainey's family and friends. I know she will be missed deeply.

Lainey was the best friend anyone could have. She rescued me from going on my first cruise alone and we repeated the fun a year later. She was simply the best as a friend, co-worker, nurse, mother, and human being. I will miss her every day of my life. But I know she is in a better place and no longer in pain for that I am greatful.

Lainey, I am so grateful for having you as my daughter for 50 years.  You will always live in my heart as the beautiful person you became.  At the moment those thoughts bring pain and tears but I know that they will eventually bring me joy and pleasure during my remaining years until I meet you and Mark and the many others I have loved in our Father's house.  
I want to thank you for bringing Sandi and Warren into my life.  There will be many stars in their crowns.  I love you more than I can say and I'll miss you terribly but I know that you are now at peace.  I love you.  Mom

Lainey we will miss you everyday. We are so glad you are in heaven with Dad. No more pain. Christian asked me why I was crying and remember you said they are happy tears. Well I told him you where in Heaven now and I was sad, he says "I should not be sad you are now in Heaven and you have no pain or cancer anymore and you will come back someday" Well he is right we will meet again in Heaven. Please don't talk dads ear off before we join you.
