I know your in a better place but some times I wish you were still here with us laughing and joking. The family reunion is coming up and it will not be the same without you. we all miss you dearly and you know I'm holding down mom dukes.. she does stress but it is understandable. I love you ... your sis Anita

Oh Laura....my heart groans.
We so enjoyed your company when you & Mark & Baby visited in January!
I'm reminded how, in an instant, our lives can be changed forever. Mark was a very special man...I remember when he and I worked as temps at Hanover Gear, his tromping through the snow one Christmastime, when you two lived on Terrace Avenue & had the trucking business, when we saw each other at meetings.....
"May the Lord bless you and keep you, make His face to shine upon you, and give you peace." All our love,
