I was so shocked to see that Lol had passed. It broke my heart. I thought of memories of when we lived and worked together in Wyoming. She was such a wonderful person and will be sadly missed. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to all of you. It’s a very sad day. Laura Was an incredible person kind, caring and loving to all. From the first time I met her, till the last time I saw her, she always had a glimmer in her eyes and the most genuine smile. Always so kind and sweet.
She loved my mom and always called her aunt Angelina. My mom loved her as well. She was very special to her.
We were so lucky to have had her in our lives. May she Rest In Peace.
My condolences to the entire family. I know how much she loved all of you.

I'm still in shock. I will miss Laura's smiling face. She was a wonderful loving woman. Laura used to ask me how my handsome young man was doing...I am going to miss her dearly!
