I will miss my friend in innumerable ways. My life was richer for having known her. She freely shared her ideas and knowledge with all. She has provided rainbows to help us remember her. She will forever be Laura, the avid reader, the lover of her family, and the master gardener. She is now a beautiful flower in God's garden.

I am so sorry that I will not be able to attend Laura's Mass at Holy Family Church. Laura always seemed full of life at the St. Charles Club Activities. She was always sweet and helpful.
She will be in my prayers as will you, her loving family.

The world has lost such a sweet soul; giving, caring, kind and generous. She was full of life and love and laughter, and a fountain of information to whomever needed her expertise. I couldn't have asked for a better sister-in-law. I will always remember her beautiful face and infectious laughter. She will be so missed!
