I used to do gymnastics in Junior High. I remember Laurie Bremer (Baker) as the queen of gymnastics in Spokane and a lovely personality.

Sweet beautiful Laurie, there have been so many times I have thought of you this past year. I still miss you so much as do all of your children. It is not easy trying to figure out how to be without your Momma. Vickie and I still talk of you and love you more and more. I hope you are having a blast in heaven! I'm certain that it is a happier place with your sense of humor up there. You make everyone smile that crosses your path. Love you, Debbie

Laurie, you were my gymnastics team leader, my hero and role model. I have thought of you often through the years and still have a few sketches I made of you on the balance beam.
My love and condolences to your family. Keep shining.

So sad to lose such a great person so young. She always made me laugh in Russian class. I had to look at the 74 year book. Laugh. She signed all 12 of her photos. She was and is a Star. Rest well Laurie.

My heart goes out to you Vickie, Suzie, Brooke, Bubba and Bailey for the loss of your beloved Sister and Mom. I was so sadden to read of the news today of her passing. Though I only knew her in High School I remember her as having a bubbly and bright personality. I loved to watch her cheer at the games our Sophmore year and she was such an awesome gymnast. She was so graceful with such precision on the beam, and unbelievable as she flew on the bars, even with tore up hands- and her floor ex. with her flips and speed were beyond comparison. In my book -she was as good as any who've won the Olympic gold! Please know she will never be forgotten!
With Sympathy and Prayers,

Laurie, may God hold you in the palm of his hands and continue to balance you as you jump from cloud to cloud. May you find no Rainbow to high to hurdle. Thank you for the early years of friendship and laughs. May you now watch over your children and protect them ever more.

Dear Vickie,Susie,Brooke,Bubba and Bailey-
Was so sorry to hear the news of your beloved sister and Mom's passing today. Though I only had the privilege of knowing her through High School- I still remember her bright and bubbly personality. And as if it were yesterday- I can picture her precision and beauty on the balance beam -of her sailing skillfully on the uneven- and flying effortlessly over the mats in her floor ex. To me- her routines were just as good as any who've won the Olympic Gold. Laurie- you've soured to new heights now- and we all will miss your sweet spirit down here. My heart goes out to you all -may the Lord comfort and hold you close

To our beautiful Laurie:
We mourn for our loss of you, we miss you because things just don't seem right without you, and we miss your smile, your warmth, and your funny personality. When you, Vickie, Pam and I would play togther as little children, you and I alway seemed to team up as did Vickie and Pam. We were buddies! I have always treasured any time I could spend with you and Vickie. We always laughed so much and had so much fun. As we all grew older, and had children of our own, it was so fun to all get togther with all our kids. I will always miss you and love you.
Debbie
