I lived in Pleasant Hills and was friends with Kip. Unfortunately we lost touch when I moved away Jr year. I remember her clearly, as we had so many fun times together. She was a special person. I am so sorry for your loss.

To the Craven/O'Brien family,

I was very sorry to read of Laurie's passing. I have not seen Laurie for many years, but, also remember the many times we shared together living across the street from her and her family on Sara Lane. Those certainly were the best years, our families were all together and we all made many great memories!

With my deepest sympathy,
Debbie Marston
