Laurie was so patient and kind. My first semester teaching at TCC, I had so many questions which she answered with a smile. She will be missed by all.Pam Rink
Oh Laurie, I will miss you!! It was so fun to work with you. Thank you for your friendship:)
Its just not possible to find a Person with a sweeter Personality than Laura. Always a Huge smile on her Face and I do mean Always. Like myself she was a Lover of all Creatures. A true Princess in our own time, and just a beautiful person inside and out. As You Travel you will have no idea how much your Missed, down here on Earth but for certain the Amount is Infinite. To my Sweet Friend Mitchell .F.
Laura…. It has been many years since I last saw and visited with you. But you were a sweet kid and married one of my childhood friends David (DD).My heart and prayers goes out to the Rutledge and the Zinn family. May God be with them at this time.April Nichols (Sharp) Houston, Texas
Laurie, how I wish that Wednesday's phone call was simply a bad dream and you were still here with us…I will never forget the great times which we had together. You will always have a place in my heart. Love, Daisy Winslow
Laurie, my dear friend, I love you. Being the person she is, Laurie has shown me great love for all of God's creation. From the smallest creatures to His people, and beyond. If you were blessed enough to even come across her path, you would know, to her, you were special. She treated everyone as they were dear friends, even strangers. Even in the difficult times she had a smile and a kind word. For me I know how much my family meant to her. Her and David took us in to warm us in the ice storm, my children even stayed the nights with them while we all didn't have electricity. She always would talk about that time, when we as a neighborhood came together to help each other, with Laurie at the front of the line to offer help. Laurie and David would take care of our pets, no matter what kind they were, dogs, cat, birds (many), hermit crabs and fish. She even helped my daughter with crickets that had to be saved. I could go on and on. Laurie loved God and all of us. She took it very seriously when she heard the words, "Love others as I have loved you." Thank you Laurie for your friendship and love. I Love you.Patti York
