Heaven has been brighter for eight years now. I confess, I look at her Facebook page sometimes, just to see her sweet smile and remember all the precious times. ❤ Blessings and comfort to her amazing children and family.

Frank, children, and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I too was raised near were Laura lived, but never met her till YEARS later, glad I did. I won't forget Lovely Laura's wonderful personality and how special she made me feel.
Her favorite saying was,''Heaven is one day closer.'' Enjoy JESUS my friend.

I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear that Laura died. She was such a sweet, caring, loving person and a fun friend. I wish I knew of the memorial service at Heartland because i would have been there. We didn't talk or see each other that often, but we always prayed for each other's families. She had that gorgeous smile and beautiful eyes and always looked so pretty. So very sorry. Will pray for Frank and her kids. God bless, Barb Vanhille (Rockford, IL)

Laura has been the most loving and sweetest sister in law to me and Auntie to my children. She would always remind us of how much we were loved by God and her. Her words always came from the depths of her heart with such gentleness and kindness.

Some women are simply beautiful on the inside, not so,with Dee Dee. Her beauty began inside and radiated out to all who knew her. I remember her kind and encouraging words when I was facing a crisis time in my life. She truly could rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.
May the God of all comfort uphold each of her family and friends at this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dee Dee as I knew her was a sweet,kind,loving person that when she smiled it would light up a room and she would always take the time to talk with you and give you a hug from her heart.I will miss her

My memories of Dee Dee are so precious. When she loved, it was with her entire being. When I worked at NLCS, often she would pop her beautiful face in my window with that million dollar smile, and there was this angelic glow around her. I could not be depressed when around her, because she always saw the good in others, and always made you feel important and loved. She and I recently reconnected on Facebook, and it was a joy to be in touch with her once again. Dee Dee had this unique quality of loving without conditions, from deep within her heart and soul. I pray that God will give you, her family, the strength and peace that is promised in His Holy Word. There is a peace that is not of this world, the kind that passes all of our human understanding. My prayers are with you all at this most difficult time in your lives. JoJo Rumple (Cooper)
